    I dont know if this thread is acceptable here as im still new here ( your welcome to delete it if its innapropriate)

    But I just thought that maybe some of you may be interested in my handmade dreadlock tams and wraps on my website!

    I also have some natural ghanaian soap, residue free and great for your skin and dreads.

    If you want to have a browse at what I do please feel free to do so.

    oh awesome
    i was looking at the craft forums
    and went to your site
    you have so many awesome tams
    when my dreads get big enough i plan on checking it out again
    you should make some wool beanies with the cool designs
    like the mint choco chip would be an awesome wool beanie
    well take care
    :D

    you are so talented! i'd buy from you but the items i like are a bit too pricey for me right now lol was it difficult to learn how to crochet? i've always wanted to learn, but don't know where to get started.

    ive sorta hadthe opposite prob with these guys tho & hadnt seen any big enough..didnt really look at the tubes tho
    what would ya charge for somethin custom?
    dont got alotta $ but i do need just the right hat..
    i'm loosin like 8 inches or so off a few from draggin on the ground & really need just the right hat thats not gonna pop off in 20 min
    i have this 1 which stays on but the loose weave catches on everything
    [​IMG]
    thats odviosly sunshine, not me wearring it but u get the idea
    with a brim would be cool too.

    WOW soaringeagle I had no idea your dreads were THAT long.
    wowsers.
    If I made you hat to fit your hair it would probably take me a month!!!!
    hahaha although im quite curious about the challenge tht would be.
    perhaps we could trade something?
    would you be up for that at all?
