Caul

Several weeks ago I was sent a link to this lovely caul. Although I am still trying to figure out how to make the stitch, I was interested in making something similar -- and simple. So I called upon a friend who is involved with SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) and together we came up with the following caul in plain netting





as seen from the back and the side.

It was fun. Now to try some different stitches







and wait for my hair to grow out again. Yesterday my youngest daughter and I donated our hair to Locks of Love. Her hair was barely the required 10 inches, mine was well over 12 inches. It's been almost two years for my daughter and close to two and a half years for me.

Now I either have to figure out how to attach a caul without braiding my hair first, or wait a year or so until it is long enough to play with again.

Hi, I am looking for something to put my long hair in with a motorcycle helmet. I'm thinking a snood might.work but I'm not sure. Do they clip onto a ponytail? Thanks! Destinyinhim@gmail.com
