Clown Hair Details

  • Wrap yarn around a knitting needle. (Size 13 or approximately 1/2" diameter)
  • Hand sew chain stitches to hold the yarn together.
  • Remove the "hair" from the knitting needle and arrange it on the head working from around the face to the back of the head.
  • Hand sew the hair in place, stitching from the chain stitches to the head.
  • Fill in the head with "hair"
  • Sew and knot securely! Unraveling yarn would be a strangling danger.
