π¦ Dramatic Forehead Bangs
Cut ~50β70 strands of beige yarn (6β8 cm long).
Using your hook, loop each strand through stitches at the top-front of the head (like fringe).
Brush forward with a slicker brush until fluffy and shaped into bangs. Trim slightly to length.
βοΈ Brushed Fur Technique
-
Brush the entire alpaca body, neck, and head using a slicker brush or pet comb.
-
Comb repeatedly in one direction to separate fibers and make the loops fuzzy.
-
Shape with scissors, trimming uneven strands for a rounded silhouette.
-
Avoid brushing the face, snout, and feet.
Optional: Brush ear edges lightly for a soft halo.
π§΅ Assembly
-
Sew the neck securely to the top of the body.
-
Attach the head to the neck, aligning the cream face patch forward.
-
Sew legs under the body in a seated pose.
-
Add tail low at the back.
-
Attach ears to head sides and fluff edges.
-
Brush the whole body one more time, trim lightly, and shape evenly.
π Finishing Touches
-
Add extra brushed loops around neck base for extra fluff transition.
-
Use a fine comb to blend the bangs into the head fluff.
-
For ultra-soft texture, use wool-blend yarn instead of acrylic.
π Result
Youβll get a beautifully fluffy, long-necked alpaca with soft bangs, a tiny snout, and plush fur β just like the one in the reference photo.
