I made this set for my good friend Anne back in the summer when she was visiting her. The hat was an experiment that I didn't think had gone very well and I had unraveled a zillion times. I found the pattern in a crochet book from the 70's that I picked up at Value Village for about $1. The scarf is a mesh stitch that I made up quite quickly. I can't remember what pattern I used or if I just made it up as I went along.

It's all made from upcycled materials. A co-worker gave me the sweater that she had knitted years ago and I unraveled it. & the underpart of the hat is made from yarn that was given to me by one of my Grandma's friends.

Anne tells me that it's quite warm and that all her friends are quite jealous of her. :) I've even seen pictures of her wearing it in real life so I am quite chuffed! A big thanks to Anne for taking the lovely picture of it too. Thanks Anne!
