NO, HIPSTERS DID NOT INVENT THE WATCH CAP

Although the fact that it has been so heavily embraced by a new era of artisans and makers only adds to the timeless authenticity of this knit hat. The watch cap is just that, It's a knit hat with a cuff that can be rolled up or down. It was traditionally made from wool yarns but now also out of acrylic and cotton. They can have a pom pom on top but the styles that are generally coined with the name watch cap generally do not.

The term watch cap literally comes from members of the United States military who would œstand watch, and the hat was such a symbol of that silhouette that we call the hat a watch cap".
