Product Details
Ghostly mist is a near constant state-of-being in the wetlands. It creeps into the marshy landscape morning and evening creating a deep quiet. This fog is thick and enveloping, yet light as air.
That’s an apt description for the Marais Hat and matching cowl. Worked in weightless “Billow” by Shibui, it is soft and cozy yet airy and as nebulous as fog. Marais is pierced with eyelets and punctuated with bobbles in an array inspired by oystergrass, a common Y-shaped grass that grows along the damp edges of the bayou.
The Marais Hat is a classic beret, drawing on the French history and culture of South Louisiana. Softly sculptured, this beret is whisper soft and echoes the oystergrass motif of its matching cowl. It’s a meditative knit, easily memorized, that creates a gauzy, haloed cap with just enough warmth for misty mornings and drizzly afternoons. Be sure to check out the matching cowl!
The Marais Hat is part of "Wetlands: Knitting in the Deep South Vol I", my new eBook!
