These sound like the head scarf that I have that is actually a hood and a
scarf knitted all in one...with a bit of a fake fur around the face for
trim...they don't make them anymore. I have had this one since I was a child
and it used to be my mom's...its now mine. I use it alot in these cold
montana winters. I would love to see some new ones like these back out on
the market...and like you said sherri...its only got one seam...across the
top to make it into a hood. Admittedly this one is starting to get
ragged...we have had it for many many years...but I wouldn't trade it for
any of the newer hats and scarves thingys on the market these days.

Ohhhh, thank you!
I took one to the hospital to work on. I use three yarns together...but I
want to try one with three plus a fourth of a very fine thickness.....a
little more than thick thread. That is where the artistic thing comes in I
suppose......

i made one for Russ when we came to Missouri from Southern California..we
were cold...... I knitted it with four yarns...and long enough that I
pulled one end up inside the other end and sewed the two ends together.....
that left a rather long 'bell 'shape. Then I turned up the folded edge and
he had a cap with a wider 'band' around the ears than the usual rolled up
edge. So you have four yarns....double thickness of knitting and a double
extra layer at the ears. The California boy thought it was pretty good!
He has finally acclimated...
