HAIR
I used color F for the hair. Cut strands of 20” in length, fold them in half and use the hook
to fix them to the head

Note: I don’t have pictures for the exact same hair that I used for Lydia; however, these
pictures show the exact same steps that I used.

You don’t need to add yarn for every strand of hair, add as much as you want.
