Peculiarities
The style of wearing things made of thick yarn came to us from northern Europe. Grotesque models of hats quickly gained the attention of fashionistas in other countries.

In general, this Scandinavian style of dress has a communicative function. In such things, even if it is only a hat, a woman feels protected, invulnerable, fashionable, feminine, "small" but independent... Such a palette of feelings is touched upon by wearing such things. Plus, the Helsinki hats go well with the rest of your wardrobe. A woman in this outfit is insanely interesting.

Hats do not have any special requirements for elegance. However, this does not prevent a woman from remaining truly attractive. It is worth emphasizing that the models of hats are made strictly in size.... They do not differ in excess of volume, they are warm and comfortable. The visual effect of "bulkiness" is created by coarse yarns.

Finished things have a fairly rigid structure, so they do not lose their shape. There is an opinion that Helsinki hats and, in general, large knitted things should be attributed to the oversized style. But this is not always true. Judging by the material, a feeling of freedom and lightness is really created in such clothes. At the same time, it should not "hang". Helsinki hats also don't have to look separate from the look. They only supplement it, shifting the accents in their direction.
Technically, it will not be difficult to knit such a hat model.

The Helsinki hat with a lapel is different in that it resembles a traditional headdress carefully knitted by a grandmother. The product folds along the hem, and you get such a pretty cuff. The width of the cuff of the cap can be adjusted by “lowering” or “wrapping” at your discretion. Such a hat is a rather stylish accessory that always stays in fashion trend. In addition to the design, the hat attracts with its practicality. It is warm and comfortable in it, it does not press anywhere. The lapel serves as an additional layer for insulation, well covers the forehead and ears. Hats made in this style, but only in large knit, will remain in fashion trend in the coming season.... The style of the hat is closer to the classic style, but at the same time a fashionista can always emphasize her individuality in such an accessory.

A modern helsinki hat can be very bright - red, light green, blue. But sophisticated women of fashion prefer more natural shades of yarn. Pleasant, natural colors allow you to combine the hat at your discretion in order to harmoniously fit it into any look. For example, it can be a shade of beige, any shades of warm gray, trendy brown and muted blue colors. "Poisonous" colors are best left to teenage fashion. Cnperky shade and rich color make the product more suitable for the season.

The most suitable yarn for knitting a Helsinki hat would be merino or any coarse-spinning yarn. In this case, mohair or angora will do.And if the model will be worn in spring, then silk or cotton should be considered as a suitable yarn. When choosing a yarn, you should ask whether it contains acrylic. Its presence in an insignificant amount will allow you to knit a thing that will not stretch after washing and will not lose its appearance after prolonged wear. To select a pattern and model of a hat, you can study the product catalog on the website of the online store or view a catalog with ready-made things, pay attention to the models of fashion shows.

How to knit

![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/450-0/2016/12/shapka-helsinki-est-punkt-pro-vyazanie--41.jpg)
It will not be difficult to knit a hat if you have at least the initial skills of a set of loops to obtain a straight fabric. First you need to decide on the color of the cap, choose the yarn by shade and texture. The process of knitting with a large style will take a minimum of time. But your Helsinki hat will become a favorite wardrobe item. For knitting, you need about one hundred fifty or two hundred grams of thick yarn. In this case, the length of the thread should be from fifty to one hundred meters. Needles are needed - the fifth or sixth size.

Novice craftswomen will be able to master the Helsinki hat model with the simplest embossed pattern. To do this, you need to dial about 70-80 loops on the knitting needles, depending on the volume of the head. Then you need to knit a cloth about 12 centimeters long. For a simple knitting method, an elastic pattern is used: alternating front and back loops (one at a time). Next, knitting is done with the front satin stitch.
This will add extra volume to the product.
Technique: alternation of a row with front loops and a row with purl. This continues until the desired cap height. For rounding, it is necessary to gradually (every two rows) decrease the number of loops. They are knitted in pairs. From the beginning of the decrease, you need to knit such a number of loops so that there are 35 of 70 of them. Next time there are 18 of them. The remaining few loops can be gathered on a thread and pulled together. At the final stage, the hat is sewn along the hem at the back of the head. Now the chunky knit hat is ready. Such a hat will decorate a casual look or become an additional accessory in a winter wardrobe.

What to wear with?
Owners of voluminous hats do not need to rack their brains too much, coming up with ridiculous combinations of different-textured wardrobe elements. The chunky knit is “unconventional”. An attempt to combine it with expensive fur or with strict elements of the wardrobe will not initially lead to success. Just look at the hat models. In two variants of the combination of large elements - a hat with a fur coat - one thing wins. But a set of chunky knitted items - a hat, a scarf and mittens - will be an excellent option for winter outfit. This combination of knitted items made in the same style looks more harmonious. Although much depends on the product model itself. You can wear this stylish headdress in combination with a down jacket, a warm raincoat, a windbreaker or a quilted jacket, as well as a woolen coat or bouclé outerwear. Fashionable styles can be complemented with a variety of accessories in the form of jewelry on a hat.

In the latest fashion collections, you can see new items from voluminous hats with a visor, with knitted roses along the hem, with brooches or large buttons. Helsinki hats are now often an alternative to regular fur hats.
