Here's a hat and scarf that I made using Buffalo Gold (a little gift to myself for Christmas), Tahki Bunny (aqua and lime stripes) , and something teal blue that I don't remember. I need to finish off the edges of the horizontal scarf (it got sort of rough looking where all the ends are woven). I crocheted the bottom edges of the hat and think I did a pretty good job, though I have a long ways to go to be comfortable with crochet. Both the hat and the scarf are dreamy soft, and when the scarf gets a tad itchy (the Bunny has wool in it), I just loosen it and it's fine.
Also at Christmastime, I made this pink piece as a snood (cowl) but decided it was too itchy to bear, so I decided to sew one end and felt it, and now I'm making a heating pouch with rice and lavender to slip into it, adding closures, and giving it to someone I know who can always use something soothing to heal whatever ails her.

Good idea. If something isn't working for you, make it into something else. I'm sure your friend will really appreciate that heat pouch.
The hat and scarf look good.
