CapThis light brown woollen knitted cap was discovered on a man's body found at Gunnister in Northmavine in Shetland, in the late 17th century. When he died, the man was wearing a coat, jacket, shirt, breeches, cap and stockings. The cap has been knitted mainly in a stocking stitch pattern - one row plain and one row purl. The turned up brim has a more elaborate pattern. Some of the possessions found with the man's body were a wooden pail, a horn spoon and a knife handle which all could have been used for preparing and eating food.
