This is Jack. He is the main character in Jack and the Cool Beans. I have been struggling to figure out how to make him. Mostly stressing out about how to do the hair. And a little bit about how to make his clothes and a lot about how I wanted to do his face.
Thanks to you, I was able to figure out how to do the crochet cap and knot the strands. It worked really well. And it actually took a lot less hair to fill it out. I probably need to give him a bit more of a haircut but I am afraid of going to far.
I decided to keep his face simple. I may go back in with pastel and pen and give him cheeks and freckles.
The clothes turned out to be easier than I thought once I found some knit for a sweater and figured out a way to make the casing by sewing it flat and straight.
This is Gracie. I think I posted her before. It was in the discussion about sewing her new improved curly hair on one strand at a time that you told me about crocheting a wig cap. I mostly winged it on Jack. But Iβm going to try it on the next one. So thank you!!!

Jack is adorable and has a good head of hair! I also love the clothes on all the dolls.
I panicked for a minute when I saw the βand thank you!β because it sounded like you were leaving us. Not sure why I got that feeling but it would have made me sad. Iβm happy now it was really just a thank you.
