Creating a lace part crochet wig cap is a great way to customize your wig and achieve a more natural looking part. But there are a few small mistakes that can affect the final look of your wig.

Whether you’re making your first lace part crochet wig or you’ve tried before and weren’t happy with the results, avoiding these common mistakes can help you create a better finished wig.

Before you start creating your lace part crochet wig cap, here are three mistakes you want to avoid.

Mistake #1: Lining the Lace Up With the Front of the Cap

One mistake beginners make when creating a lace part crochet wig cap is lining the edge of the lace directly up with the front edge of the cap.

Instead, you want to pull the lace down slightly, leaving at least half an inch of lace extending past the front of the cap. This gives you enough lace coverage along the front of your part so that your finished wig will have lace throughout the part.

I go into more detail on how to create your lace part crochet wig cap inside The Crochet Wig Handbook.

Mistake #2: Not Making Sure the Front of the Part Is Even

Another mistake beginners make is not making sure both sides of the front of the lace part are aligned evenly before securing the lace.

This small detail can make a big difference in the final look of your wig. If the front of your part is uneven, it can affect how your finished wig sits and how the part looks once the crochet hair is installed.

Mistake #3: Making Your Lace Part Too Narrow

A lace part needs enough space for the lace to actually be visible.

If your part is too narrow, you may end up seeing mostly hair instead of the lace, which defeats the purpose of creating a lace part wig.

Now, a narrow part isn’t always a bad thing. If you prefer the look of a detailed part without showing much lace, you may actually like that style.

But if your goal is to create a true lace part crochet wig, you want to make sure your part has enough width.
