Sherwood Forest Cloche
Introducing Sherwood, a stunning vintage cloche style hat that features a unique reversible brim, perfect for knitters seeking a blend of classic charm and modern design. This updated take on the beloved “Robin Hood” hat, popularized in the 1930s, showcases enchanting Celtic flair and a distinctly vintage feel that will elevate any winter wardrobe. The cabled band is expertly knit separately using a provisional cast-on technique before being grafted into a stylish double-sided brim that offers versatility and comfort.
In this pattern, stitches are meticulously picked up along the brim and crafted using basic decreases to shape the elegant crown of the hat. For an eye-catching detail, a large decorative button secures the cloche brim in place on one side, adding an element of sophistication. The double brim not only enhances the hat's aesthetic appeal but also ensures you stay surprisingly cozy during the cold winter months. Whether dressing up for a night out or keeping it casual for daytime errands, the Sherwood cloche hat seamlessly transitions across various occasions.
When selecting your yarn, consider opting for a neutral green for that classic Robin Hood appearance, or experiment with a bright tweed for a trendy twist. This versatile pattern is ideal for knitters of all skill levels looking to create a timeless accessory that combines warmth, style, and a touch of nostalgia.
