16th Century Flat Cap
This pattern recreates the classic 16th century flat cap seen across Europe. Pattern includes source link to photos of an original period cap used as guide for the shape/look of the piece.
The cap is knitted, fulled, and stretched to size, so it is very flexible for any head size. Full by hand or using a washing machine.
Note: Pattern may be knitted on any number of double-pointed needles. I prefer a set of five, but given the large number of stitches, you may want more, or you may want to use a circular needle.
