the chunky, slouchy knit beret


ever since last summer, i've been thinking about bulky knit berets. not that i've actually done anything about it, mind you. i just think this whole beret look is so darn cute. of course, since miss HOhan first sported hers last fall, there have been a host of knockoffs. this one from blue sky bulky (VK holiday 2006) is my fave so far.


two more cute designs. the grey beret is from the rowan ribbon twist book (via yarnzilla). andrea tells me the pink cap is missoni, from several seasons back. (via olga), who also happens to have her own amazing version of a chunky beret available for free.

(hugs to olga for your incredible patience in getting my chunky, slouchy brain to comprehend how to post images side by side!)

The pink cap is Missoni several seasons back. I think around 2002-3.

I have a really yummy, marvelous, and LONELY skein of manos de uruguay 113..... illustrious Kate Sonnick, do you think that a slumpy hat would be a good destiny for it? Le Slouch looks cute on JENNA, but then what doesn't? You should probably wear a slouchy beret, your Missoni glovies, freaky capecho and carry a Fake-A-Gamo to Knit Club to see if the insane assortment of fabulous knits attracts weirdos or scares them off, and then take pictures, and let me know.
