Yesterday was a warm cap day.

Snow blowing and shoveling this morning in a Stormy Kromer.

I had posted my new acquisition elsewhere, and another member was kind enough to suggest that I post it here as well in caps section so, without further adieu, my new cap from Sterhowski (since 1926) out of Warsaw, Poland. I absolutely love it, it's style, fit and colors---a combination of dark brown, beige, and blue flecks. I'm not an agent of theirs but, I hightly recommend them. Shipping was prompt, but coming from Poland, it does take a little longer yet so worth the wait to me. Wonderful Harris Tweed material. Very pleased.

Wool cap and your reading material are cut from the same "cloth." Lovely cap sir.

Thank you Eric, very kind of you to say......and precisely. I have the complete volumes and of course, the new series on PBS Masterpiece is......pure eye candy. I'd posted a querie regarding the northern Dales farmers and their knotted kneckerchieves, but no one undertook the exercise. I hope someone does.
Anyway, the series is wonderful....and instructive. It's comfort food for the eyes and soul

I wear ball caps occasionally at work, and sometimes when instructing, but I rarely wear them otherwise. This Purdey is a rare exception…the only Purdey I’m likely to ever own.

Great weather for a hike into the woods. Blue Herringbone Wigens newsboy was today's choice.

I wore a blue cap yesterday.

Warm weather has stopped in my neighborhood for a brief 2 day stay. It foretells that warm weather is a coming. What warm weather caps do you folks wear frequently? Suggestions?

I am putting in an order for a couple of caps and would like to consider some warm weather options. On my list are a light weight one piece Wabash cap and a one piece straw cap.

Thanks in advance for sharing. best, Eric -

Nice! I like that cap so much that you inspired me to pull the trigger on a Gamble & Gunn 8-Panel made with Donegal Tweed in a similar pattern (i.e., it looks a bit darker in the photos on their website). Thank you!

Here in Connecticut, I can wear shetland wool or lighter weight wool newsboy caps for almost the entire summer. When it's really hot, I'll wear one of my linens newsboy caps
