A pretty tam to brighten up crisp Autumn walks is what was needed round here. Colour options and yarn choices are abundant and this hat is so quick to make that it’s not an indulgence to have more than one in your arsenal!
Worked in the round with no more than two colours per row, the fairisle pattern is both written and charted; it is super quick to work, leaving just a few rounds of plain stocking stitch to work before the clever top shaping descent.
Designed for subtle elegance, the beret is not big and floppy, just a joy to knit and a pleasure to wear - everyone’s getting one for Christmas this year!
