Apparently, hap is "a covering of any kind" (see below). Perhaps a Scottish crocheter will tell us if that usage is more common over there!
Definition: hap (hæp)
vb (tr)
to cover up; wrap up warmly
n
a covering of any kind
[C14: perhaps of Norse origin]

Thank you, calamityjane. So the Scottish Hap could be a shawl and any shawl could be a hap.
