Struggling for time to complete a Halloween costume? Well, set aside your ‘Singer’ because designer Casey McClurg has a ‘Jurassic Classic’ sure to scare away the spookiest of spirits.

The Dinosaur creation is one from her line of handmade fleece hats available at Caseybot. And it’s easy to see where Casey gets her inspiration: When she’s not slaving over her sewing machine, she works in the exhibits department at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.

All Caseybot designs feature animals living and long lost, and are available in a range of sizes to fit children and adults. And if you can’t find your favourite creature in her range, Casey will fashion a special piece on request.
