It only takes a day or two to make one of these caps. I like the pillbox shape. I am not a fan of the current mode for cloche hats that fit close to the head because they are hairdo killers. The best shape I have found for hairdo maintenance is the beret.
As usual, the cap is crocheted in tapestry crochet with a ribbed band picked up from the crochet and knit for 16 rows, then turned under and stitched down.I am surprised how little yarn these caps really take. On one hand I am not using up the stash of leftovers very fast, but on the other hand, more people will be warmer this winter.
