I'd like to design a prototype of bag/hat that people with long dreads can stuff their dreads into and use as a pillow. That would be super awesome for camping.
crochet. you can make it loose or tight, textured or not, and if you find a 'marble bag' design it will be stretchy too, for longer dreads. http://flickr.com/photos/31127689@N00/2175987049/ thats the closest picture i could find, the pattern in my head is like a flower, built up by adding petals into the previous petals. i'll try and find the pattern im thinking of.
i have this hat (odviosly thats sunshine not me wearring it) when i stuff my dreads in it it makes a very confy pillow for 4 5 if we cuddle cluse
Someone has already done something like this: http://www.dreadworx.co.uk/dreadlockproducts/dreadlockaccessories/pages/dreadsocks/index.html This one isn't meant to be used as a pillow, but thats a sweet idea <3 Camping
Good call! If you wanted something that would help them along aswell then perhaps made of wool? Follow your dreams! Alex
how about this? Obtain a Baja hoodie, turn it inside out and put your pillow in it... then sleep on it works for me
They are selling this idea on http://www.dreadworx.co.uk/dreadlockproducts/dreadlockaccessories/index.html
Could you not making something like a sleeping bag about 1' wide that's closed on 1 end and the 2 long sides, no zip. You could just make it arbitrarily long, then slide in your dreads and roll it up into a reasonably soft pillow.
RE: Baja is a mexican hoodie ,very seqenced. It really is a beautiful peice of art but its enierly made of wool .Delicously nappy wool ,highly advised to try. I did this for three weeks and my congo got thicker , wider and somehow did not fall apart Sometimes thats the kind of thing you really do have to band the big daddy congo mama locks
