Oh I have had a great time learning about snoods, scarves, and wimples. I was looking into what sort of fun bride related sewing or hope chest project I could have on hand for Melody for Day of Delight this weekend and discovered these. Melody has mentioned several times that she would like something else to do with her hair. She loves it long, it is all the way down to midcalf when it is not braided, but she is tiring of just having braid options to change things up with. These little headpieces look perfect to work with this weekend. In addition they tie in with the Jewish bride theme because they are so much like what a bride would have worn. An extra bonus is that I can pick up locally what she will need to make them. Now, if our sewing or crocheting skills are up to them. What fun!
Here are my research links:
Scarves:

Scarves can be bought here, but for now I just need ideas.
Snoods:
Wimples: These go anywhere from looking like pretty, overgrown cowl neck sweaters to nuns habits. LOL. I think the ones that look like cowl necks that you can wear on the neck or over the head are pretty.
When you look at this picture of her from the Christmas play, maybe you can see why I think she will be lovely in some of these headwear items.
OK, now I am needing to balance all this girl view of the theme with some boy stuff. LOL. I can't wait to see what I find for them to enjoy!
