Knitted, Crocheted Clothes Are Cool

Many people loved donning knitted clothes in the ’60s, like these girls who were watching Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in 1961. At the time, the fashion-forward were fond of creating clothes out of yarns and wools, mostly for comfort and warmth. However, there were a few designers who managed to incorporate this technique in their creations.

Although crocheted and knitted outfits were popular during that decade, the trend never truly fizzled out. Stars like Mad Max actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Victoria’s Secret Angel Hailey Baldwin Bieber were photographed wearing knitwear in bright colors.
