This tam is based upon the Deveraux Tam pattern from Fleisher’s Knitting and Crochet Manual (1922). The manual describes it as a simple tam, “made distinctive by well-proportioned stripes.” Worked in garter stitch, the striped short-rows do not require picking up the wrapped stitches to produce a well-finished result.
