The Skye Boat Knitted Beret Pattern will allow you to create a slouchy beret in the style of the MacKenzie clan grey berets seen worn in all seasons of the Outlander series.

This beret is knit flat – back and forth on straight needles.

Yarn

Rowan Kid Classic 50g/140m/153yds x 2 in the color Pumice
00888.

Please note that the yarn used is made with lambswool and kid mohair.
You can substitute with any Aran/Worsted/10 Ply yarn.
Yarn weight - Medium Weight Yarn 04/Worsted/Aran/10 Ply

I knit this yarn with two strands together for a heavier chunky/bulky
knit.

If you want to knit with one single strand only then you will need
Bulky/Chunky/12 Ply yarn.

Needles

7 mm (US 10.5) Knitting needles.

8mm (US 11) Knitting needles.
