Knitted hat models

People who walk around with their heads uncovered during the cold season most likely simply could not choose a suitable headdress for themselves. Today there are a huge number of knitted hats that can not only protect you from the piercing winter wind, rain and snow, but also add a “zest” to your usual everyday look.

The variety of models and styles of hats allows you to choose the right model for any type of outerwear, be it a fur coat, a coat, a leather raincoat or a sports parka jacket. Modern knitted hats do not spoil your appearance at all and allow you to maintain health and normal well-being.

1. Classics. A strict, but at the same time not boring, classic large knit hat will be an excellent option for high school girls and students who prefer sporty or trendy “casual” or “street” styles;
2. Beret.There are two types of berets: a neat one in the style of the 70s and a voluminous headdress with an edge hanging over one side. Each of them looks great with classic coats and is the choice of feminine and romantic girls;
3. Ushanka. Everyone remembers the hat, which has “ears” tied under the chin, thanks to the good-natured postman Pechkin from the cartoon “Three from Prostokvashino.” Today, ushanka is worn not only by postmen, but also by women and girls, who put comfort and coziness first, and only then appearance. Modern models of earflaps are often decorated with braids and various thread weaves;
4. Cap. A classic-style hat with a visor sewn onto it perfectly protects your eyes from the wind, falling snow or drops of cold autumn rain. Cap-hats, knitted from thick threads with a voluminous pattern, look very successful and stylish;
5. Stocking. This style is a favorite of the current and several previous seasons. There can be a huge number of variations on the theme of a stocking cap;
6. Hood. This model is the choice of owners of complex hairstyles who need constant styling. In addition to the fact that the hood does not wrinkle the hair, it also perfectly protects the face and neck of its owner from the cold;
7. Beanie. A hat that fits the head as closely as possible, and has only a sewn-on fur pom-pom or a pom-pom made from cut threads, is loved by both adults and children. It looks equally successful and appropriate in tandem with any of the styles and images;
8. Snood. A knitted snood is one of the few models of hats that can be worn with a fur coat, sheepskin coat or woolen coat. The second name for snood is trumpet;
9. Turban.This model, according to reviews from many needlewomen, can be easily and quickly knitted with your own hands from any type of thread. The turban is suitable for women with any type of appearance, however, it must be worn only with oriental-style clothes and accessories;

11. With ears. This version of hats, in which the ears are knitted like a cat or a hare, is a favorite option for romantic teenage girls. Particularly interesting are the options in which the role of the ears is given to pom-poms made of natural or faux fur sewn on the sides;
12. Helmet. A hat in the form of a helmet, reminiscent of childhood, which covers the head and entire neck, is also worn by adults today. Most often, such a headdress is chosen for winter sports.

Various styles of knitted hats

Hats, as well as other wardrobe items, can be divided into several styles:

1. Youth. The youth style includes hats with ear flaps, helmets, beanies, and hats with ears on the sides. By wearing any of the above headdresses, girls can be sure that her look will be fresh, light and mischievous. Such models go well with sportswear and casual jackets;
2. For older women. A woman who cares about her appearance and has crossed the threshold of forty years will never wear earflaps, a helmet or a beanie with a voluminous pom-pom. For elegant ladies of Balzac age, there are classic models of pastel shades to choose from without any decorations or unnecessary attention-grabbing details.The turban and bowler hat are especially popular among older women. A correctly chosen hat for outerwear can elevate the image and give it femininity and chic;
3. Universal. There are several models that will look good and appropriate on both an adult woman and a young girl. They go perfectly with any bottom, be it a mink coat, a quilted down jacket, a leather jacket or a wool coat. Such “universal” items include voluminous berets, a stocking-shaped hat and a snood covering the neck and shoulders.

Reference! Speaking of styles, it is worth mentioning the recent fashion trend, when all family members dress in the same or similar style or type of clothing. Thus, a sports family consisting of a mother, father and child, going for a run on a fine autumn day, can put on the same beanie or earflaps, which will undoubtedly attract many enthusiastic and interested glances.

It is important to remember that in order for a hat purchased or knitted by yourself to decorate and complement the image, it must be worn correctly:

• The beanie is placed loosely on the head, leaving the back part free (you can press it slightly);
• The snood is worn wrapped several times around the neck, with the widest part draped over the head;
• the beret is worn on one side, without exposing the auricle;
• modern earflaps are worn on loose or braided hair, without tying its “ears” under the chin;
• a knitted cap is worn with the visor forward on hair loose or gathered in a low ponytail;
• a hat with ears is placed tightly on the head so that the fur pom-poms are located on the sides.

Knitted hat and decor options

Most hats knitted from natural or artificial yarn do not need any additional decor, as they have a specific pattern. Patterns are knitted with knitting needles if the product is made by hand or with special knitting machines.

There are a lot of interesting patterns that can be used to decorate any knitted product, however, for hats they most often choose:

1. An elastic band. A hat tied with an elastic band will fit your head well without moving or slipping through your hair. For insulated models, double or triple elastic is knitted;
2. "Chess". This pattern is reminiscent of squares drawn on a chess board. Such a headdress will be quite dense, its edges will not tuck;
3. Diamonds. Berets and beanies with diamonds knitted all over the fabric look interesting. The geometric pattern makes women's hat models more strict and versatile in style;
4. Braids. The most popular pattern for knitted items. You can knit almost any type of headdress with voluminous or flat braids. Braids of varying thickness located in the center, side or entire fabric make any knitted product unusually cozy and warm, even if light synthetic yarn was used for its manufacture;
5. Openwork. Romantic openwork designs on the hats make them very beautiful and delicate. You should not think that because the headdress will have holes (an integral part of the openwork pattern) it will be less warm. If the base is natural wool yarn, even an openwork hat will provide excellent warmth and protection from the cold.

On models without any designs or patterns, the following decorations may be present:

1. Sequins. Today, designs made from upside-down sequins are especially popular.With a simple movement of the hand, drawing from one picture to another;
2. Rhinestones. Appliqués made of stones can decorate a seemingly boring and unremarkable stocking or beret;
3. Beads. Large white beads, sewn onto fabric in the form of some kind of pattern or in a chaotic manner, are the trend of the current season. The main thing is not to forget about them when washing your hat, since exposure to hot temperatures can cause them to become cloudy or peel;
4. Pompoms. Fur pompoms or made from pieces of yarn can be sewn or tied to a stocking, beanie or classic model.

Fashionable models of winter knitted hats

Winter hats will become very popular in the 2018–2019 season. Most famous designers included them in their collections and made them the main focus, as can be seen from many photos from shows. Fashion trends are divided into two lines:

1. Miniature beanies. Models from this category fit the head tightly and do not have unnecessary details. They are practically not decorated with anything, there are no voluminous lapels or fluffy pom-poms. The emphasis is on conciseness and clarity of lines. In this version, the hat should not attract attention - it only serves as an indispensable addition to the overall image, in which the main emphasis is on outerwear and other accessories (handbag, shoes);
2. Voluminous berets and earflaps. The second line is radically different from the first; its main emphasis is on the headdress, which, it would seem, just came out from under grandma’s knitting needles. Large knitting with double or triple elastic, voluminous braids and fluffy pom-poms are indispensable attributes of fashionable hats for the 2018-2019 season.

When choosing a hat, you should remember that it should not only be beautiful, but also warm.If the product is made by hand, then it is necessary to use only natural yarn of the highest quality.
