play sushi

At long last:  nine sets of knit sushi for a playfood swap I'm doing with some crafty local mothers. 

Salmon rolls, California rolls, and pickled ginger.  Wasabi seemed like a choking hazard, so I didn't make any.  Soy sauce and chop sticks also not included.

 I used this pattern and scraps of wool and cotton yarn.  The pattern is really an excellent stash-buster--it calls for fingering weight yarn but you can swap in heavier or lighter yarn as long as you accomodate by increasing or decreasing stitches accordingly.

Next time I attempt a project like this I need to make something simpler (pancakes?) because this took way too freaking long.  This project lasted at least eight netflix (a legitimate unit of time in my world).
