The Design

With Gallic or Highland flare, a beret or tam is flattering on virtually everyone. Its slightly slouchy shape can be pulled this way and that for style or down over the ears for warmth. The Studio Beret is made with a tall band, roomy crown, and a chunky-weight yarn knit on smaller needles for a little more sculptable structure and warmth.

Woolfolk Flette Bulky brings a plump squish and dynamic texture to the Studio Beret. A malleable, bulky-weight yarn, it’s created with 100% Ultimate Merino. One lofty strand is ruched, spiral-like, onto a single fine thread for a bouclé effect—cozy, cuddly, and cloud-like!
