Wool Food
Wednesday, April 2, 2008, 09:45 PM EST [Crochet]
I've been making lots and lots of food lately - here are a couple of pics:
Tamago nigiri, maguro nigiri, tuna roll, carrot roll.
Pita pocket with falafel, green beans, peas, and a chicken drumstick. As soon as I can manage the time to take photos of the others I'll post them. LOL, it's a little hard to find a free hand sometimes with four kids!

Easter Eggs
Wednesday, March 26, 2008, 10:59 PM EST [General]
I decided to have a little fun when I was dyeing Easter eggs with the kids on Saturday. I batiked (kind of) the eggs using a white crayon for resist and overdyed with just the three primary colors. Not the fanciest stuff in the world, but it was fun! The colors in the photos are off, so for reference, the two eggs on the right are purple in the main color. 
Hiya Rose,
DawnThank you for your suggestions! I was starting to work the pattern in extended sc with the "spirals" in fpdc (because it gave more definition than only using extended sc stitches) but the fabric felt too "nubby" for a sensitive scalp and the spirals didn't show up well on a more solid background...ehh well. I have to keep in mind that the hats I make are for people who really need comfort (and coverage) over style. I liked your idea of a fabric liner, but I don't really know how to do that. I have a sewing machine, but it's primarily a doorstop, alas. I'll keep trying to come up with attractive patterns, but I'm currently looking more into adding crocheted flowers with yarn ties or pin backings so the flowers can be removed before washing the cap.
Okay, enough for now, it's bedtime :)
Thanks again!
