JP Ryan 1770 s Dormeuse Cap Pattern

The Dormuese, or French Night Cap, was especially popular in the 1770's.  This style was also referred to as a baigneuse, or bathing cap.  The crown of the cap fits loosely over the head, with rounded wings or ears framing the face.  It may be worn close to the face over a natural head, or away from the face, covering a high coiffure.  This cap is designed to be trimmed with two rows of ruching over the ears, a band of poufing around the crown, and a ribbon bow at center front. This JP Ryan 1770 s Dormeuse Cap Pattern can also be used as a basis to produce many of the larger caps seen in the 70's and early 80's. 

The JP Ryan 1770 s Dormeuse Cap Pattern is suitable for fine linens, starched cottons or silk gauze.
