Either way, it's headgear that also keeps your neck warm. It's also my first proper commission, as I made it for a colleague of mine.

Since I don't want to post pictures of my own stupid face, I improvised by forming a makeshift head out of carrier bags. Imagine a face on it.

It's not blocked yet, so I may post another picture of it once it is.
