Gibbs Beret
The basic beret gets a style upgrade when lace is combined with twisted stitches. Knitted in a seasonally friendly blend of bamboo and Merino wool and worked from the brim to the crown, the decreases are worked in pattern for an uninterrupted look. Rain or shine, you’ll love this project during this transitional time of year.
