Beautiful! My adult daughter is a knit & crochet designer and hobbyist, and she is clearing out her samples. These are lovely, but we have more than we need. These are samples that have not been worn. New and suitable for gift-giving if you so desire. The cowl is crocheted and can be worn a variety of ways. (One of my pictures shows it folded in half.) The hat is handknit from the same yarn. I like the texture variety of this set. Yarn is Knit Picks Muse, 100% washable Merino wool.
