Prompter Lieferung trotz falscher Bestellung über E-Mail.
Wurde sofort korrigiert und die richtige Mütze geliefert.
Sowas tolles habe ich noch nie erfahren.
Qualität sehr gut.
Werde Euch HAE weiter empfehlen.
Das Häkel-Set war ein Geschenk für eine gute Freundin. Sie ist eine talentierte "Häklerin", deshalb fiel die Wahl auf das "Verdrehta". Sie hat sich riesig darüber gefreut.
Wunderbar warm, schön flauschig und nett anzusehen. Was will man menr
Ich trage "The Mask" schon seit mehreren Saisons. Die Qualität ist top!
Mit "The Mask Kids" wird es nun auch meinem Sohn nie kalt!
Auch ich - sowie mein Sohn mit dem Kids-Modell - liebe meine neue Mütze!
Mein Sohn liebt seine neue Mütze!
Am liebsten würde er sie auch beim Schlafen tragen 😉
Super weicher Stoff, sehr warm und genügend gross für alle Tragearten.
Fällt wenig grösser aus. Sehr angenehmer Stoff und kuules Design.
Einmal mehr ein tolles Teil von Hae. Mein alter Neckwarmer sah langsam ziemlich abgeranzt aus und habe ihn durch diesen hier ersetzt. Ich hab die Entscheidung nicht bereut. Die Merinowolle ist supersoft und flauschig und der Wärmegrad ist genau richtig (der alte Warmer war eher auf der zu heissen Seite).
Top Beanie, das sehr warm gibt.
