From the brand: The STRIPED COTTON KNIT CAP is knitted in a 7-gauge cotton yarn, giving it structure with a lighter feel than traditional wool. This striped pattern draws on mid-century outdoor and leisure wear, when color became part of casual dress rather than purely functional kit.
Knitted caps have been worn in Europe since at least the fifteenth century, when tightly constructed wool versions such as the Welsh Monmouth cap were produced for labourers and sailors. Often designed for a close fit with a natural stretch, they were a practical choice for the cold outdoors. By the twentieth century, similar brimless knit hats such as the WATCH CAP had moved beyond work and military use and became part of everyday civilian dress.
