This hot pink cap features my original lemon design, machine embroidered onto 100% organic cotton softness.
This is a throw-on-and-go hat, perfect for everyday wear. It’s 59cm circumference, with a silver metal adjuster at the back, and a niiiiiiice mid profile depth of 15cm.
Big enough for smaller scones, large enough for bigger noggins.
CARE NOTES: Gentle spot clean or handwash recommended, and then dry in shade.
The original and the zest. My watercolour lemon has found a new home - on your favourite new cap.
Fancy seeing you here
Fine art prints, on beautifully-textured, museum-grade 100% cotton paper.
