Thanks Melva! However the designer’s site says:” Originally inspired by a Navy Dress Cap” . You can read more on her site about it! Thanks!
I made this for my grandsons for when their Daddy came home (he’s in the Navy).

I used a F crochet hook and followed instructions for the 3-6 months size and it’s a perfect fit for the American girl dolls. Really cute!
I cannot open the link to the free pattern. It says something about Network Proctocol error.
