I love this pattern! My oldest son (who is in his 30s) would love this. I think I will make it for him, his girlfriend will roll her eyes at him but he will love it! The pattern is rooted in memories of hot dog cookout where the kids cooked their own dogs over the camp fire, it would bring back lots of good memories.

Wow. A hot dog sleeping bag. I'm sure the boys will want to bring this to their camping. A super chunky yarn should be used in this project to protect the person form the cold when the camping happens in the autumn or winter season. I'm sure the little ones will also like this, maybe even the adults will want to use this kind of sleeping bag. Thanks for this free pattern.

Sounds nice but I would like to see a picture of the finished item. Seems like you're not including pictures more and more these days.
