"Beautiful & functional leg warmers"

I was pleasantly surprised when my leg warmers arrived. They are beautifully made & long to cover my lower legs. IĆ¢ā‚¬ā„¢m going to wear them when the chilly winter wind tries to breeze through my pants.

"Very nice & soft hat."

I really like this different style (Turban) winter hat. The knitted weave twist adds to the unique design. It covers my ears well and still leaves a little hair showing with the V at the forehead. The color was a little off, it was not quite as emerald as the on-line picture showed.
