    just go to any regular bead store and look for beads with bigger than usual holes in them and then use sandpaper wrapped around a screwdriver to make the hole big enough for your dreads :)

    just go get some polymer clay and make your own meng :)

    what you do is get some wire and wrap them around a pen to make a frame for the bead.
    then go and put some polymer clay on the wire frame and bake it in an oven.
    then you can paint it after for a nice custom effect or just leave it as it is since polymer clay comes in different colors and doesnt really need paint :)

    How long are your dreads? 'Cause I've got an extra large tam, made of out super soft green & burgandy yarn that needs a home. Let me know if you're interested and I'll post some pics.

    Yep- I can make it in any size and in almost any colour. I had to learn how to crochet because I couldn't find any hats that would fit me. I don't use patterns, I just make it up as I go.

    all depends on how big your dreads are and what materials you would like to use.
    my tams start at $30 for simple one colored hats
