Good intentions...

Lydia is really getting into playing "dress-up" lately, but doesn't have a lot of "dress-up" clothes.  So that was one thing I wanted her to have for Christmas - play clothes for all the things she likes to pretend to be.  One of those things is a lion, so I wanted to make a little lion's mane headband sort of thing, complete with ears.  I pulled out the closest colors of yarn I had, figured out how to do a crochet loop stitch, and went to work.  Here is the result.

So, what do you see in this photo?  Cute dress-up accessory?  Or 70's bath mat of doom?

    either way, it's going to look exceptionally cute once she puts it on! :)

    Lydia reminds me so much of Daniel. He was forever changing clothes all day long, being something new all the time. He had a drawer under his bed where he kept all his alter egos. -laffin'

    I love the lion-wig! You never fail to amaze me with your resourcefulness.
