Continue to work crocheting the locks of hair. You can make their length smaller if you wish.
Note that you can crochet the locks in each stitch of the circle or skip some of them making slip stitches instead. Thus, you’re adjusting the hair volume.
The longest locks (at the back of the head): 45 ch, crochet sc in next 44 ch starting from the second ch from the hook.
The medium locks (at the temples): 15 ch, sc in next 14 ch starting from the second ch from the hook.
The shortest locks (bangs): 10 ch, sc in next 9 ch starting from the second ch from the hook.
Make additional locks of desired length on the entire area of the circle (attaching the yarn at the appropriate places).
Pin the hair to the head moving the circle slightly to the back (choose the position you like) and sew it on.
Embroider a nose and tint the cheeks with soft pastel or rouge if you wish. Make a beautiful hair-do 🙂
What is a “bud” that you put in the neck to stabilize? How do we one make it? I didn’t see any instructions for it.
Cotton buds = cotton swabs
Hello,would you please add some new dolls like Mia,Emile,….I thank you in advance.
Hermosa muñequita Julie muchìsimas gracias, la harè, sòlo que no sè mas o menos de què medida de alto queda.
Me gustò mucho tu blog, me encanta tejer. Bonito y bendecido dìa.
Soy Sylvia, aunque aparecerè como Josè Luis, estoy usando la lap de mi esposo.
Why wouldn’t you add the head to the neck and create the perfect 1 piece doll?
Love your work thank you for all you do!
Why continue Head from neck? That would create a perfect doll.
If I wanted to reduce the Head to 42 stitches. Do I just leave out Row 11-15? Thank you
