Hello @danmaruschak

I was very interested in your post because you're sculpting the shape of the foot so the figure can stand.

When I've made crocheted (or knitted figures they never stand properly. My response has normally been to add wire to create a sort of skeleton inside the figure and to just hide it in the stuffing.

Here's the sort of process I mean :

I haven't used proper wire in the past just thin gardening wire. Those who know me are used to me always looking for the right type of wire 😄

I look forward to seeing the progress.
