building the perfect wig step 1

  • Posted on May 21, 2014 at 4:37 pm

today i am trying to design the “perfect fit” wig for my pukipuki. step one is designing a wig cap the fits perfectly and doesn’t pop off right away. this involved a lot of stitching, frogging and re-stitching till i finally got the shape exactly the way i wanted.

it also involves fine crochet cotton, a very small hook and a tiny safety pin for a moveable stitch marker

i couldn’t figure out how to do a video and get it in focus but the cap stays on even if i shake her. (don’t worry no dollies were harmed during the shaking, and ruby was happy to help with the demonstration) hopefully that will still hold true once i add the hair and it gets heavier, but for now i am quite pleased with the fit!
