"One for me, one to share"

I bought this in two colors, and this is the color I gave away. The recipient was absolutely thrilled. And I am thrilled too, with the one I kept. She is 5 ft 9 in and it looks great on her. I am 5 feet tall and tend to wear mine just at home, but it s my constant companion. Great for chasing the chills. She has great dramatic flare, and wears hers out for dinners, social events, and so on. A very versatile piece! Plenty of roomy fabric, yet lightweight and warm.

"The hat was a huge hit"

I bought the hat as a gift for a friend. He is wearing it almost daily and absolutely loves it for the comfortable feel of the alpaca fibers as well as the warmth. The neutral colors and reversible design make it a versatile wardrobe piece. Well crafted!
