Dreadlock hairpiece

Here I have placed the black knitted cap over a coffee can. This holds the 'wig' in place while I sew the dreadlocks on. Maybe you can see the silver yarn needle on top that I use to sew each dreadlock in place. I'm going to be covering most of the cap with dreadlocks, so I need them to be sewed to the cap, on the top and also the sides.

Stay tuned for further developments on the Pirate Headpiece. You can make one for a human the same way I'm doing this.
