Original handmade accessories are now in great demand, and this is understandable. Things “with a twist”, correctly selected for clothes, make it possible to create your personal style and make the image complete. Knitted hats, often made in a single copy, can be the part that will allow you to look stylish and unique.
Styles
Knitted hats are almost an all-weather accessory. Depending on what kind of yarn the hat is knitted, it can be both a summer and a demi-season thing, and even a hat for the winter.
Summer models are most often made of cotton yarn, viscose or linen, jute or raffia can also be used, for winter choose woolen, semi-woolen or acrylic yarn, as well as mohair or with a boucle effect.
Here are some styles of hats that are successfully presented in knitted versions:
- Fedora. A headpiece with a trapezoidal tulle, in which there are three recesses. Fields of medium width that can be folded up.
- Trilby. Tula also resembles a trapezoid in shape, but it has one depression in the center and two small ones on the sides. Fields are narrower than Fedor. The base of the tulle can be decorated with chains, laces with beads, etc.
- Homburg. Tula trapezoidal, with one longitudinal recess, not wide fields, bent up on the sides. The tulle can be decorated with ribbon or knitted laces.
- Broad-brim. It can be knitted openwork or tightly. Usually decorated with knitted flowers, braid or feathers.
- Bowler hat. Tula is round, without grooves, narrow fields are bent up.
- Cloche. A bell hat that covers the forehead, with a low rounded tulle and not wide brim. Tula and fields can be separated by a tape. These hats are usually decorated with a variety of decorative elements, most often with knitted flowers.
- Slouch. With lowered fields of medium width and a low rounded crown.
- Breton.With a low, hemispherical tulle, with wide fields bent up at the edges.
- With ears. Craftswomen knit hats with ears, which are called "Cat", "Fox", "Panda." The names in this case speak for themselves.
The number of styles of knitted hats is simply impressive: you can even see knitted cylinders and tablet caps.
How to choose?
When choosing a style, it is important to pay attention not only to the material, texture and color of the thing, but also to the conformity of the shape of the hat to the type of face:
- On a round face, knitted hats with a high top will look good, which should visually lengthen it. It is important that the headgear does not cover the forehead. Attention should be paid to models decorated with vertically arranged elements, such as feathers. Fields can be straight or asymmetric. It is better to abandon hats with a rounded toe. Models that are approaching on the forehead: cloche, tablet, bowler hat - do not fit chubby.
- Knitted hats with a high top are suitable for a square type face. Preference should be given to styles with a rounded toe or those that can be worn by sliding to one side. Fields of headgear can be asymmetric or omitted, with bends. Direct fields should be avoided.
- For people with a “heart”, knitted hats with medium-length margins are the best option; a cloche model is suitable. It is better to refuse wide-brimmed hats.
- If you have an oblong face, opt for hats with a low top and wide brim, on styles that cover your forehead. The cloche model will do.
- With the shape of the face “oval” the choice of styles is the widest. It is believed that in this case there are no restrictions.
