Wig making :D

I got some wool/yarn at Spotlight the other day because the blue and purple was so pretty (I really like the green as well but that ball of wool/yarn was more expensive and I didn't want to buy it just for an experimental wig making since I won't have any use for wool/yarn when I can't knit >_<) I combed out a lot of yarn after making the basic wig (see the progress photo on my tumblr here), and of course I had to cut it up, because that's the most fun bit about making your own wigs (not being afraid that cutting them up would mess up the whole thing, since you can always remake it).

The wig is rather imperfect, but I'm happy for my first try, haha. You can't see it in the photos, and also cos I styled the heck out of it, but the wig is kind of bald in some places (I got lazy sewing the "hair" onto the wig cap), and the wig cap I made was a bit too small/short at the back (I had to hold it on his head with some masking tape). I love the colours a lot, and these are crappy nighttime shots cos I was so excited to take photos. I have to say though, the photos can't show the real colours in this wig. Gonna give this same wool another try when I have time...probably on Sion? Haha. And have another photo of Jack.
