Who Watches the Watch Cap

The men in my life love wearing watch caps, and I have to admit I enjoy their warmth on the coldest of days as well. This simple but effective design combines everything that makes a watch cap amazing - a wide warm brim to keep the ears and forehead cozy as well as a wonderful textured pattern that insulates and keeps the wearer's head cozy. This coordinates with [Who Watches the Watch Mittens](/patterns/library/who-watches-the-watch-mittens). The sample was knit with Malabrigo Rios #687 Aquamarine, but your favorite worsted weight wool would work beautifully as well. The smallest size uses about 23g and the largest size uses about 82g. All of the sizes of this hat have 5-7 inches of negative ease for a snug fit.
