Have you heard of the Snood?

[gardengirl72]

A snood is basically a scarf and hood. I've found so many great ones and I'm trying to make as many as I can with the yarn I have already. Here are some images of some that I like.

I know those as "cowls"....Here is what I know as a "snood" --

They are a way to tie up/cover your hair as part of your faith.

Those are kinda nifty. I have never seen a snood like that. The only snoods I have ever seen looked more or less like this random snood of photobucket.



Those snood scarfs are beautiful though. I love the pup snood

that is funny that we posted the same thought at pretty much the same time. Heck, even the picture is the same.

Great minds and all that

I have actually met Lady MacSnood. She sometimes is a vendor at the SCA (medieval reenacting) events we attend. Her snoods are lovely and obviously take time to make.

I have several snoods to wear when I am reenacting. I wear my hair long for ease of styling--there are many snoods or caps that are appropriate to the era we portray.
