What are Skully hats?
Skully Hats, also known as Skullies, Skulls and Caps, are hats without problems that are designed to hug the skull and keep their heads warm. These hats can be knit or crocheted with wool or cotton yarn, as these materials achieve comfortable, tight fastening. The appearance was first associated with workers with blue collars and sailors who needed to keep their heads warm without distracting the edge. Currently, Skully hats are an indispensable part of occasional urban clothing. Some styles were also appropriated as sartorial symbols by various urban subcultures. They were made of embroidered velvet, taffet or satin and worn over the head of the head. Men and women wore black velvet skulls in the 16th century, but women later continued to trim with lace and fur during the 19th century.
