LoveCrafts said: “Ooh la la, Stella Akroyd’s Symbol Beret pattern is knitted from just one skein of The Yarn Collective Bloomsbury DK. Worked in the round in garter stitch rib, the pattern’s attention to detail gives it real wow factor. The increases work perfectly in to the brim rib and the shaping has been calculated (using the golden ratio no less!) to result in chic perfection and complete wearable style. A pretty top knot lends a fun nod to timeless Parisian style.”

This beret is so chic and an absolute dream to knit. Worked in the round, I cast on the right number of stitches to cleverly make a (K6, P6) repetition work magically into seamless corrugated garter rib - it’s like magic!
