As Halloween approaches, many parents are racing to find the perfect store-bought costumes for their children. However, some creative minds are going the extra mile. Enter Lisa Johnson from Columbus, Ohio, whose crocheted ‘E.T.’ costume for her little boy Leo is leaving everyone in awe.
In just four days, Lisa crafted this incredible costume without following any patterns. Starting on a Friday and completing it by Monday, she showcased her masterpiece on her blog, CrochetWorld. Prepare to be wowed by her skills!
A Creative Journey
While you’re picking your jaw up off the floor, let’s delve deeper into this talented mom’s background. Lisa has been crocheting since childhood, thanks to her grandmother, who taught her the craft while they sat together on a retro couch. “It’s amazing how those memories stick with you,” she says.
A true fan of the ’80s, Lisa is eager to pass on her love for that era to Leo as he grows older. “I can’t wait for him to appreciate just how cool this ‘E.T.’ costume really is,” she adds with a smile.
More Than Just Costumes
Lisa’s talent doesn’t stop there! She has previously created a stunning costume inspired by Clint Eastwood in “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.” Last year, she also designed an adorable Caterpillar costume from “Alice in Wonderland” for Leo, proving her creativity knows no bounds.
Expressing her gratitude for the overwhelming positive feedback, Lisa shares, “I’m astonished by how much joy he’s bringing to others! I’ve been saving screenshots of the reactions to keep as mementos.” For aspiring crafty moms, she suggests starting with family: “Ask your grandma for tips, and if she doesn’t know, dive into YouTube together until you both figure it out!”
Inspiration for All
As someone who has struggled with various crafts only to give up in frustration (hello, knitting), it’s admirable to see someone like Lisa successfully creating such extraordinary Halloween costumes that will have friends envious.
