Interesting history excerpt on the Watch Hat:
The watch cap,
according to some sources believe the history of the knit cap began in Monmouth in Wales in the mid 1500s, snug-fitting warm cap to keep out the elements. If one is to believe the cap originated in either Great Britain or Scandinavia, it makes sense that it would be associated with durable, practical workwear.
A close relative the
tuque
(sometimes spelled
toque
or touque) refers to a warm knitted cap, traditionally made of wool and usually worn in winter. A most iconic item of
Canadian
headwear is arguably the
tuque.
