The Design

“Like wearing a cloud.”

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.

We held Blue Sky Fibers Brushed Suri double for a fluffy Studio Beret that’s like a little cloud on your head. The long, shiny locks of baby suri alpaca are blended with soft merino wool and bamboo for a yarn that’s quite strong, so very soft, and with a fluff factor that’s off the charts!
