Making the Head and Face - Making
the back of the head
The back of the head is made in two parts
by the doll maker to give the head a shape resembling a human
head. The pattern is derived from the face pattern (see diagram).
Draw 1/2 of the pattern without the darts and and shape it
as in the diagram below, curving the back of the head and
adding a slight outward curve down the centre line. If a larger
head is required, the doll maker should make a short gusset
to go between the two halves at the back of the head, starting
at the face and ending 3.8cm down the back of the head (see
bottom diagram).
