My daughter is modeling one of the many Monmouth Caps I've been knitting lately.
History and pattern by Jennifer Carleson.
The little tab on the side is a signature of the Monmouth, it's a loop that historically they aren't sure what the use for it was. Either to hang it when you took it off, or attach it to a tab on a helmet so it stayed put when removed.
Made one for my sweetie out of some Rambouillet that I spun last year and it looks very authentic, not to mention the wool is exceptionally soft! More of that is on the way.
