on the topic of knit hats...

I'm sure what comes to mind for most of us when we think of knit hats is a classic ski cap, or some variation thereof.  I would love to have one knit item in this hat collection and in doing my research I came across some unique points of view.


all hats by Hannah Jenkinson found here

What I love most about Jenkinson's hats is that they appear romantic and delicate in spite of how chunky they are.  It's almost like a Botticelli hairstyle out of yarn.  (Funny I should mention this - you'll see what I mean when I upload my updated dunce cap.)

I also came across these:

hats and clothing by Nathalie Fordeyn found here



They oddly remind me of this iconic look:

I think we've learned our lesson here - no more boring knits!
