A fisherman beanie refers to the classic knit stretch hat you think of when you refer to a beanie. A simple knit hat, it was designed to keep fishermen’s heads and ears warm while on sea, and the cuff turned up to expose their ears once they were on land. Today, this style has evolved to include all different kinds of knit patterns, colors, pom-poms or no, and many more customizations. As you trade in your seaside-inspired summer bucket hat for something a bit cozier, consider these tips as you shop for a fisherman beanie:


  • Yarn: The type of yarn used will influence the warmth of your hat. Wool yarn was traditionally used for fisherman beanies, but you can also choose from other soft wool blends for your hat.
  • Shape and design: A slouchy beanie featuring a traditional cable-knit design is nostalgic and reminiscent of winter ski slopes. Mini fisherman beanies often fit more snugly. Many hand-knit choices made by Etsy sellers incorporate classic or trendy shapes that give your outfit a bit of oomph.
  • Color: Many shops on Etsy work with hand-dyed yarn to create their beanie designs, giving a totally unique look to each piece they create. A bright orange fisherman beanie will ensure you stand out in a crowd, while a speckled hand-spun yarn with a rainbow of creams, browns, and greens pairs well with earth-toned outerwear.

You can accessorize with a fisherman beanie, whether you’re the tough, outdoorsy type or looking for a cute, comfy hat to match your outfit. Not all fisherman beanies have a rugged look; a slouchy beanie gives your outfit a more relaxed tone. Pair it with an oversized sweater for the ultimate in cozy chic, or opt for a more tailored top and pants to offset the oversized fit of your hat. If your beanie is brightly colored or has a busy pattern, like an ombre yarn featuring all your favorite hues, wear it with black or neutral shades so that your handmade hat pops.
