A New Spin on an Old Favorite

My best seller to date has been my removable Viking/dwarf beard, which is very popular among the LARP folks. I've even had inquiries regarding a large number of them for a group here in Kansas City.

While they have been great for funding my other yarn projects, I've been looking for a way to make them a little more exciting. When you make 10 or more of something in a row it gets a bit monotonous.

I was inspired by watching How to Train Your Dragon, among other influences, and wanted to have something a little more interesting, so I came up with this.

It's still not my ideal, but with the thicker beard and more braids, it's getting closer to what I had in mind. I may even throw in some other shades to give it highlights.
