Unsure what happened with our thread but here is a pic of one of the vintage wool's that we just received in cap form.

Donegal tweed right?

Been looking for something like this.

This cap has been sitting at the local thrift for some time, so i finally decided to take it. "The best in the west" Winnipeg. 6 5/8 is pretty small so maybe i can give it to one of the little ones. I dont think getting it stretched would do any good, the width of the cap is just too small anyway.

 

[Simonds]

WOW! you found that in a thrift store? Congrats on such a great find!

Not sure if it is true Donegal from Ireland but very similar and well made. We have contacted John&Molly with pictures hoping they are able to verify it.

Congrats Barry! Now you will be able to learn from it. Having vintage caps has helped me quite a bit.

 

[Simonds]

I have learned one thing already, you can't find these amazing fabrics anywhere. It doesn't stop the search though LOL!

Barry, fine cap! Robert has an amazing collection of Caps!
