The traditional mobcap was a round, gathered or pleated fabric cap that was often see being worn by older women in the 1700's. Although it was originally considered "informal" in style, as the century progressed and a desire for "simpler" or "countrified" fashions came into play, the cap became more popular. It was worn alone indoors and under a hat when outdoors.
It is traditionally associated with the American Revolutionary War, especially with Martha Washington and Betsy Ross.
This cap is made of fabric with a lace edge. Elastic inside ensures a perfect fit.
