1549 Italian Style Top Coif
by Mathew Gnagy
This pattern is
available from themodernmaker.net
for $6.00.
Knitting pattern for an Italian-style coif with ear-flaps based on a surviving knitted piece from 1549. This is the second layer in a 2 piece set of hats meant to be worn together.
This type of hat with ear flaps is quite common in modern clothing as it is very utilitarian. In the 16th century, the garment was called a coif. It was an item of daily wear in many cultures.
This hat is knit with a set of five double pointed needles and knit from the top down. Pattern requires 3oz of fingering weight yarn for a single coif (hat).
