- How to make hair for your handmade doll using wool or yarn. I explain the process step by step, showing you how I make my Tilly Doll pattern with yarn instead of felt hair.
UPDATE ~ For more detail on stitching the yarn hair while it's wrapped around the card, please watch this video:

You can download the sewing pattern for the Tilly Doll and her outfit here;

and the video tutorials below show how to make her.

this has been insanely helpful. I'm a self taught sewist and am making a "fairy princess" doll for my aunt's friends granddaughter who is turning one. A rag doll and simple dress I can make no problem, but yarn hair is a mystery. A lot of tutorials I've seen get way too complicated way too fast for my tastes, but this is simple and straightforward. And thank you for that tip about the gap! I would have never known it could be a problem until it happened and then I'd be stuck trying to figure out what to do and once again wading through tutorials
Thanks so much for your comment ~ I’m glad the video was helpful. Enjoy making your fairy princess. Sounds lovely! 🌸
This is so helpful! Most other techniques I’ve found have been for short tacked down hair, but this is perfect!
That's great - I'm glad it was helpful!
Great video and I'm not a doll maker. Would have like to see more detail on the stitching you do after wrapping and before cutting. I am a new subscriber now and will search through your site to see if I can find that detail. May you have great success in your future business. Those who give so freely of their time and talent will receive ten-fold in return. Thank you.
Thank you! I've just filmed an additional video showing how to stitch the yarn when it's wrapped on the card. I'll be uploading it soon!

Thank you for this clear and quick tutorial! Very useful.
You’re most welcome, Nell! 🌸
OMG, this is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you for the easy to follow instructions. I'm off to do my best.
I’m glad it was helpful ~ good luck! 🌸
You're adorable and thank you for posting this. I was commissioned to make a doll and I hadn't the first idea of how I wanted the hair :) Your video is informative and easy to follow
Thank you Demri ~ I'm so glad it helped!
I have been looking for directions to make hair for my dolls..(They are about the size of a one yr. old child) Thank you! I will be giving this tutorial a try. This should be fun! Been going to thrift stores and purchasing cable knit sweaters and other fabrications to make over for the clothing. Hope they turn out even half as cute as I think they will!😊
Thanks Sandra. Using unraveled sweaters for the yarn should create lovely wavy and curly hair! Enjoy! 💕🌸
Thank you so much for this lovely tutorial. I am recreating a ragdoll from a video game as a present and I was very nervous when it came time to give her hair. Your video made it very simple and easy for me to understand! You are a fantastic teacher. The doll turned out wonderfully, and I couldn't have done it without your help. Keep up the good work! Bless you 💕💕💕
Update: my friend loves his gift! He styles her hair and made her a hat! 😂🥰
Thanks so much for your lovely comment, Emily. I'm so glad the video helped! 🌸
Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for.
That’s great ~ thank you Trish! 🌸

Hola muy linda su pelo es tierno un saludo desde chile
Many thanks, Isolina!
Thank you
You’re most welcome! 🌸
I like this idea. I had a thought while watching that I could actually stitch on both sides of the cardboard, then cut it in the middle for when I make shorter hair. I wonder if that would work?? My sister wants a couple of dolls made, and I think she wants short hair for them.
Hi Linda. I don't see why that wouldn't work, and I'm keen to try it myself now!
@@tillyandpuffin well, I'll be interested to see if it works. My sister ended up wanting long hair on her dolls so I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. Oh I know! I'll make a doll for myself and try it. 😀
@@OHlookSHINYthing Good plan ~ let me know how it turns out! 😊
Does the yarn fray over time
I haven’t had that happen with my dolls. It would depend a bit on what type of yarn you used. If the ends did fray a little over time, you could trim them to neaten them.

Hello Eda, I've filmed a video showing how to make the cat, and I'll be uploading it to the channel very soon! 😻
@@tillyandpuffin thank you very much😘😘🌹🌹
@@Eda-ls8ri Here it is. 💛th-cam.com/video/2N3HFnAtrqQ/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Tilly%26Puffin
But how do you stitch it??? I am a beginner, self-taught. I barely know how to sew...
And I am trying to make a doll for my daughter. I don't have a sewing machine either so I am doing everything by hand.
Please help 🙏
Hi Silverleaf. I also stitch my dolls by hand - you don't need a sewing machine. There are tutorials for making my Tilly dolls on my channel here www.youtube.com/@tillyandpuffin/videos . I'm also planning to make some sewing videos for beginners but in the meantime this channel; th-cam.com/play/PLe4jP3xshsch6XxUxO6Akg2lEe_V4LDmI.html has some basic hand stitching tutorials. Hope you enjoy making your daughter's doll. 🌸🌸🌸
It was useful but would have appreciated actually seeing you stitching the hair on the cardboard and to the dolls head
Thanks for the feedback, Janette. It’s useful to bear in mind as I create more videos.

It's a shame you didn't show us how you stitched the hair together when it was on the cardboard. I would have liked to seen that 😢
It was difficult to film that part at the time, but I will try and film an additional video showing the hair being stitched on the cardboard. Thanks for your feedback.

Show don’t talk so much. It’s trying… not trying to insult. Talk when neccessary❤
Well I think the talking is explanatory. And this gentle British accent so much better than all of those yanking yanks!! 😅
Why didn’t you show us how to stitch the hair on the card as not everyone knows how to do that?. After all, the video is supposed to teach.!
It was difficult to film the actual stitching along the edge of the card, but I explain how to do it at around 1 minute, 50 seconds.
I’m a beginner at filming and presenting videos, using basic equipment, and am doing my best while I gain experience!
A little kindness goes a long way. If you weren’t satisfied with this video, there are many more you could have moved on to. I don’t personally know the lady who gives this tutorial, but I found your comment very offensive. Kindness matters.
Geez, calm down. You don’t have to be rude
How rude! She did show this.
Thanks, lovelies! 🌸 Here's an update with more detail on stitching the wrapped yarn; th-cam.com/video/pSdgmYdTpAM/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Tilly%26Puffin 🌸
