A pure wool scarf that had stretched to nearly nine feet long through some adventures in its lifetime and sustained a bit of moth nibbling along the way was scooped up at a church rummage sale.
One end was folded down into a breadloaf mountain-shaped hat secured with running knots. Starting at the other end, long gathered stitches were hand sewn with linen/wool yarn and a large needle along a rambling S path up almost the entire remaining length of the scarf toward the hat.
