One in a Melon
This simple fingering weight beret is worked in 2 gauges for a fun effect. This hat starts out at a tight gauge with fingering weight and small needles, then changes to fingering held double with larger needles in the brioche section. This is an excellent beginner brioche pattern as it’s worked in a single colour in the round with no brioche increases or decreases. When winding yarn for this project keep in mind the yarn is held double in the brioche section so ensure you either have 2 balls, or a center pull cake where you can pull from the center and the outside at the same time. If using kidsilk held along side the main yarn as an alternative, this is not required.
