That Star cap's a real nice find Jayessgee.
I'm with you about needing somethin' to keep the head warm around the house, too.

Some really great caps here. And I agree that blue and black fabric in the last cap is really great. I've made a few caps as a hobby. Nothing much to speak of, but to show here is one.

I was trying for something on the order of a 1910 ball cap

It's an upcycle of linen and leather. I've tried a few flat caps of different designs too.

And some smoking cap type things too.

So it's very nice to find some many pages of nice caps to admire and study.

Welcome! The second is so fantastic!

Thank you all for the welcome. Here is another one I made that I wore a couple of days ago.

It's a sort of Donegal tweed wool or wool blend. I guess I've made quite a few now over time, mostly trying to figure out how to get it to work right. I've collected a few vintage and semi-vintage over that time too.

Thanks again for the welcome and also for posting this great resource for the study of caps.

Michael
