“Barrister’s Wig in Puffed Knitting” from Weldon’s Practical Knitter (Thirteenth Series), dated 1890.

“Our engraving shows the fashionable head covering know by the name of the ‘barrister’s wig’.”

The original pattern calls for “1 oz. light silver grey single Berlin wool and 2 ozs. of pale blue double Berlin, a pair of No. 9 knitting needles, and 2 yards of inch wide pale blue ribbon”.

The “puffed stitch” pattern is an interesting drop stitch pattern, where you do double yarnovers, then drop them the next row.
