Whit's Knits: Granny Chic Crocheted Hat

Friday

01Feb2008

I recently read an article about Gwyneth Paltrow's vacation house. It was very spare and very gray. She said in the article that she's not really into the "granny chic aesthetic", which made me realize that I kinda am. So here's a wonky ol' hat in honor of our grannies, The Granny Chic Crocheted Hat. Just don't make one for Gwyneth...! --Whitney

This hat makes me want to learn to crochet. It's beautiful. So, yup, guess I'm a fan of the granny chic too...and proud of it. ;)

I love the hat!

And what sweater are you wearing in the pictures? It has a great yoke, from what I can see.

I made a Sweetie Pie Hat version which i named Davos, have a look: http://fabelaktiv.blogspot.com/
I am very satisfied, the main chang is to knit and purl all the way up, and I did also do some smal changes at the top. Thank's for lovely pattern!
