ski caps

Knit winter hats

Ski caps are close-fitting knitted hats that cover the head and ears, typically worn in cold weather.

The name suggests alpine sports, but ski caps serve as general winter headwear: I pulled my ski cap down over my ears.

They may also be called beanies, toques, or watch caps depending on region.
