Dark brown knitted cap style hat with earflaps, a short brim, and a long triangular pointed flap at the back. The hat is edged with white yarn stitching, which also creates a panel above the brim, with red edge stitching outlining the brim. The hat is decorated with brightly coloured rounded leaf-shaped embroidery, with a white yarn chain stitch stalk with symmetrical multicoloured leaves on each side and at the front inside of a white chain stitched panel. The white chain stitch outline of the front panel has multicoloured leaves along the outside. There is a red yarn tassel on the top of the hat.
