Consulting the other stitchers.....

Stumbled on this today (sorry for the long link):

Anyone else think this is actually a man's nightcap? Altho I'm pretty sure it is a later one, and stitched by a shop......

looks like a nightcap to me.

doesn't look right for a lady's coif - or even for a typical nightcap! Is it just 2 flat pieces? Was it maybe "repurposed" from something bigger like a jacket?

Pretty pretty colors, however it started life....

Happy New Year!

Yes, it looks like a guys cap style to me - as well. It is very singular if it is a woman's cap
