Sewn wig caps and wefts: Wefting alpaca and synthetic fibers for wig making

When I made my first BJD wig, I made the foolish mistake of thinking I could attach the loose fibers to the wig cap with just a single row of machine stitches. Now that I've had a little more experience, I know I need to make wefts first for sewn wigs! Today I'm sharing how I make my soft wig caps, as well as the method I use for turning both synthetic fibers and natural fibers like alpaca locks into wefts for making wigs. My husband ordered a bunch more raw alpaca locks for me for my birthday, so I'll be making a lot of wigs this year! Should I make videos about preparing the locks too? Cleaning, combing, and sharing what products I use on the locks before making them into wigs? Let me know what you think! -------------------- Find me, and more updates about my dolls and work: ★ Blog: http://www.ithilear.com ★ Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/lomilmalinde/ ★ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lomisplayground -------------------- ♫ Music: Distant by Micah Dixon https://soundcloud.com/micah-dixon-5 Used with personal permission. . ♥ . ♥ . ♥ .
