I suppose the beanie would be the modern equivalent, as I've done so occasionally. The point and puffball are probably more due to fabrication limitations of the time and a bit of flare.
Yeah, I was just thinking while typing that I've got a super soft beanie I'm going to break out before winter sets in.
Awww, c'mon. You know you want to make a silly hat for cold nights!
Here's wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightcap_(garment)
Why you gotta go bringing "facts" into the discussion? Sure, we've got the compendium of human knowledge at our fingertips, but I personally prefer hearsay and wild conjecture.
Really though, thanks for the actual information. Learned something today. Also surprised to find I was not too far off from reality.
Now you can put on your nightcap, drink a nightcap, and dream about your new knowledge!
Cheers.
Lol.
I really like this comment, and the way you wrote it.
That's it. Good job. I know I don't add anything, but clever writing like yours, here, makes my time on Lemmy better.
Don't discount the acknowledgment. It means plenty and enforces the point of this meme. Many thanks.
