Knitted hat with ear-flaps

The cap of a fur hat is not an ordinary accessory, which was invented the day before yesterday and inspired by the fashion of a la Coco Chanel. This is part of Russian culture, and the hat of the ear-flap has arisen because of the interaction of Russians and Mongols. It is believed that the history of the hat of the earflap begins with a cone-shaped malachi of sheepskin, which had large lapels. People eventually decided to cut long lapels on the sides and the remaining parts were tied on the back of the head to make it comfortable.
