Knitted Hood – A Stylish and Warm Trend Accessory
Knitted hoods are appearing in winter street fashion from London to New York. This versatile hood is an easy addition to stylish winter wear - and we at Titityy have warmly welcomed this accessory to our wardrobes. From snug-fitting balaclavas to oversized relaxed hoods, there are plenty of options to choose from.
By knitting the hood yourself, you can choose the colors and materials that best suit your taste and style. Knit your hood in bright shades or opt for neutral and harmonious colors.
In this blog, we introduce Titityy’s hood designs and patterns that allow you to effortlessly embrace this trend. The advantage of a hood is its versatility: it suits minimalist styles, sporty outfits, and layered looks. The under-stated design of hoods is perfect for complementing Scandinavian fashion and even high-fashion aesthetics. Knitted with Finnish Tukuwool yarns, these hoods combine high-quality materials with timeless design.
Tukuwool Marshmallow Balaclava – Modern Minimalism and Urban Style
If you’re looking for a snug-fitting minimalist knitted hood, the Marshmallow Balaclava pattern, is for you. First published in 52 Weeks of Easy Knits book (Laine Publishing 2022), the knitting pattern is now available as a kit as well as a single pattern. This easy garter stitch hood is suitable for knitters of all skill levels. The simple design highlights the texture of the combination of Finnish wool and silk mohair. Combining two different colored yarns creates a beautiful heathered effect.
How to style the Marshmallow Balaclava
Pair the hood with a monochrome wool coat, especially in shades of gray, beige, or black. Complete the look with tailored trousers and low-heeled leather shoes or boots.
Add knitted mittens and a chunky scarf in a matching color palette for a harmonious outfit.
For a trendy contrast, combine the hood with a sporty oversized coat or a faux leather trench.
