For those who are working with me on this costume, here is the latest addition to my ensemble! My Princess Armor for the shoulders is a powerful detail in the overall costume and will definitely help make this outfit look that much more authentic!

As these pieces come together toward my final creation, it has made me more excited to finish! Slowly but surely, this outfit will come to fruition as I work toward this masterpiece which is sure to WOW!

NOTES

-Watch the FULL introduction of the video tutorial for frequently asked questions and watch the full video for tips on how to make these smaller or bigger.
-Your foundation chain on any of these pieces can be more or less than what I made, if you need to make this bigger or smaller.
-Note your work may stretch, so you would want to chain a tad less than you actual measurement
-I used Red Heart Soft in the color Wheat for my shoulder piece, but you can use any color and any worsted weight yarn. Check out YARNSUB.com for substitution options
-My shoulder piece measures 20 inches (51 cm) across from outside of the shoulder to the other side.
