"Ebb Line Waves" Classic Dad Hat · Embroidered

Dark blue meets white in a ribbon graphic that gives Ebb Line Waves its clear, sign-like structure. On the Classic Dad Hat, the embroidery follows a broad banner arcing upward, with the words EBB LINE rendered in solid, weighty slab-serif capitals. The letters lean with the curve, so their baseline is not flat; narrow white channels remain visible between the type and the blue-edged ribbon.

• The banner’s tails turn out and down at both ends, each ending in an inward-pointing notch. Small triangular fold marks make the ribbon construction legible without crowding the face.
• Two ochre-brown wave strokes appear below, held apart from the ribbon by open white ground. They are separate marks, not a continuous line.
• The upper wave rises near its left-middle point before sweeping into a broad rounded right tip. Beneath it, the lower wave begins with a fuller rounded left end and tapers as it moves right.

The composition joins a formal banner cue to waterlike movement, while the white ground remains an active part of the drawing. That reserve keeps the waves distinct from the lettering.
