More work on the KK doll. 

I have never made a wig like this before. All just by trial and error. I watched many videos and used parts from several to make this wig.

I had sewn several of the wefts on but took them off to get a center part. 

I am now waiting for the glue to dry. Instead of sewing on the sets I am going to glue them on then style the wig.

The wefts are made from yarn. Cut lengths of yarn maybe 14 inches. I took apart the strands then pulled on the end of each strand to make bundles of yarn.

 I sewed eace bundle onto a strip of thin fabric. Sewed with straight stitch small stitches then zig raged over the stitches to make more  secure. Brushed to the yarn bunches with a wire dog brush.

I had to tie the wig cap to the body to keep it in place. Next step coming up.
