This pattern is basically a tube that fits over your head, and sits in soft folds around the neck to keep out cold drafts. It’s made long enough to go up over your hair and the back of your head to serve as both scarf and hat. I much prefer this handy little thingy to a hat that flattens my hair and/or a scarf that will end up on the ground because I just can’t seem to keep one on. It is also great for barn chores - no loose ends to end up in a horse’s mouth…
