My dh is no longer shocked when he asks me "What are you knitting, dear?" He is used to getting weird answers, like "A penis purse" or "A yak". So this time, when he asked THE question, he barely raised an eyebrow when I answered "A prawn". Yup, a prawn ... well, sushi with a prawn on top, actually!! For dd who is obsessed with all things Japanese at the moment, especially sushi. So, for Christmas I got her all the doodads that one needs to make one's own sushi and packed them into ..... a knitted sushi bag!!
Her response on opening the present was fantastic ... She looked at it blankly, looked at me .... looked back at the gift ... and as it dawned on her what it was, started yelling ... oh my god, oh my god, OH my god, oh MY god, oh oh oh oh my god! It was hysterical to watch and soooo worth the effort of knitting it!
So, this is what we ate for starters on Christmas day ....

her reaction must have been worth a thousand words..
What is it about Japan eh? My daughter is obsessed as well, has been for the past few months. I got her a bonsai starter kit and we had sushi for NYE.
How's it going with you otherwise?
Ah Lulu, this is really amazing. Such a clever idea! I love it!
