The meduim locks at the temples: 15 ch, sc in next 14 ch starting from the second ch from hook.

Make additional locks of desired length on the entire area of the circle, attaching the yarn at appropriate places.

Embroider a nose and tint the cheeks with soft pastel or rouge if you wish. Make a beautiful hair-do.
