Crown Pattern
Crown Notes
- For size 0-3 months, I worked the first row of the crown between the stitches in the second to last row.
- If you are making a larger size wig, I would recommend starting the crown a few rows up.
- The crown will be on the front half of your wig. Your stitches should end up being divisible by three.
Light teal yarn
Row 1: ch 1, sc across the front half of your wig, turn. The number of stitches should be divisible by 3. For my 0-3 months size I made 27 sc.
Row 2: ch 2, dc in each st, turn
Row 3: ch 1, *sc in next st, chain 5 and (sc in 2nd ch from hook, hdc, dc, tc), skip a stitch and slip stitch in next st*, repeat across.
Fasten off leaving a long tail and sew the crown points to the wig.
Use gray yarn to outline the crown.
Braid
Cut 60 long strips of yarn. For my 0-3 months size wig, I cut 40″ long strands.
You will attach 6 strands of yarn to each of the 10 stitches on the right side of your wig.
Pull each strand halfway through the stitches. Divide into three sections and braid.
Use a piece of your light teal yarn to fasten the braid with a bow. Trim the ends to an equal length.
