FALL Beret


















This is a beret that I made about a couple months ago and I want to share it with you all. It is very easy to make. There are only a few steps like when you get into doing the lace pattern that you should pay a lot of attention to in order to keep your pattern consistent. So, just like in anything thing else you knit you want to pay attention. Overall it a really pretty hat and fun to mix and match with different colors, so play around with it and have fun. :) *<Knit-Mania>*

LEVEL: Intermediate 
Gauge: US 8/5mm circular needles & DPN'S
Worsted weight yarn


Co 70sts. 
Work 1x1 Ribbing for 9rnds 
Next Rnd (increase rnd): *K2, M1, K2, M1, K3, M1 rep from * to end. -100sts 
Repeat rnds 1-8 of the Lace Pattern below four times, then work rnds 1-6 one more time, Knit next rnd plain.
