This yarn hair technique, rooted yarn<\/strong>, is one of my favorites. I find looping yarn onto the anchor stitches is so relaxing. The outcome can be as lush as you want, and is securely attached to the doll’s scalp.<\/p>\n

ROOTED HAIR INSTRUCTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Supplies: yarn, sharp large eye needle, crochet hook (I used a #5 here)<\/p>\n

Establish and mark a hairline on your doll.<\/p>\n

1) Anchor stitches: using yarn or embroidery floss, stitch running stitches around doll head, as shown. \u00a0Knot and firmly secure thread ends to doll scalp.<\/p>\n

2) Wrap and cut a pile of yarn pieces to desired hair length.<\/a><\/p>\n

3) Using crochet hook, attach yarn pieces one by one or several at a time to anchor stitches.<\/p>\n

4) Add more anchor stitches and yarn pieces if needed.<\/p>\n

Once complete, you are ready for your creative hairstyling.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I gave my little strawberry blonde a bob, brushed the yarn with a wire pet brush to fluff her hair. A bow and a little extra hank of yarn on top and she’s all ready for play!<\/p>\n
