Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
Looks like the Merino wool hat that Ray Mears had for sale on his Woodlore site.
Not sure if still available.

Sorry just noticed this was a double post already answered.

Got any local people who can knit? If they're any good, show them the picture and get what you really want, locally.
Here, those knitted caps are called touques or toquoes (depending on where you grew up.) 'tooke'. . . . as in 'food'
If you're familiar with vehicle engine heaters for nights and weeks of -20C and colder, they might be called "block-heaters."
Having grandma knit them is a tradition, too. I don't need to buy labels but that's just me.
Is it a scandanavian style to have ear flap coverings? Essential design element here.

On the ansco website linked above there are 3 other possum hats - one is the smooth 'ray mears' beanie in many colours. Another is the ribbed one you are after. 😊

To me it looks exactly like the swedish beanie 'Olles bror'.
It was plentiful among all the other swedish surplus around in the end of the nineties. Didn't Ray sport a swedish m59 shirt around the same time, early series?
I've not seen one in stores for a while, but plenty of knock offs, telling me the originals arent around anymore.
Patterns are available online if you're into knitting.

Hats #1 and #4 are dramatically different. RM has his rolled up maybe 1/3 or more. Many do that here with a full face balaclava.
