Thank you for viewing! Knit Cap There is some fuzzing, but no stains or pilling. It's difficult to see in the images, but gold thread is sewn in, making it sparkle. The second image is a little easier to see, but it sparkles even more in person. The size is unknown because the tag has been cut off, but it's made of thin fabric and stretches well, so it's about the right size for children aged 3 to pre-school. It was a little big on my 2-year-old. It will be shipped compressed to a thickness of 3cm. Thank you!
