Crocheted Medieval Knight’s Helmet

Etsy shop HattieHooker sold these awesome crocheted knight helmets. It’s not just a cap: there’s a button-on removable visor, too. Apparently, a regular winter hat wasn’t doing enough to announce that you might be available for a quest.

Contemporary coverage identified the maker as Dee Forrest and described the hat as sized for teens and adults. The visor was the clever bit—a movable crocheted section that gave the cap its medieval-helmet look while offering extra coverage for the face.
A Visor Worth Raising
The visor is what turns the cap from a vaguely helmet-shaped hat into full winter-knight territory. It gives the face that covered-up armored look, while the removable design means you aren’t committed to wearing it across your mouth all day.
It looks great, but let’s keep the distinction clear: this is a crocheted hat, not battle armor. Looking ready to storm a castle is one thing. Actually volunteering for the siege is another.
Medieval Style Meets Winter Fashion
Still, sometimes sacrifices must be made for the sake of lookin’ cool. Beauty is pain or whatever! But if you’re like me and you’ve got zero concept of style, then you get a court order requiring you to wear a hard hat at all times. Even in the shower!
