Openwork Crochet Cap — Chelles Crochet

Hand-crocheted, one cap at a time, by Michelle Mincey.

The Chelles Crochet cap is an openwork-crown cap in the kufi / skull-cap style — a breathable lattice stitch that sits close and light. Every cap is made to order in your size and your color. The cap pictured is shown in Cherry.

Sizes

Measure around your head, across the forehead and just above the ears:

• S — 20–21.5 in (51–55 cm)
• M — 22–23 in (56–58 cm)
• L — 23.5–24.5 in (60–62 cm)

This is guidance, not a guarantee: crochet has natural give, and if you are between sizes, size down. Every cap is made by hand — slight variation is the nature of the craft.

Made to order

Your cap is crocheted after you order; timing is confirmed with you at order time. For a colorway or size you don't see here, email Orders@ittoldem.com before ordering.

Care

Machine wash warm, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low, delicate cycle. (Per the yarn maker's instructions.)
