Notes

Beret knitted using two different yarns knitted together, which gave a really great effect as well as giving a bit more weight to the malbrigo lace yarn.
Ribbed band knitted on 3.25mm in hind sight probably should have knitted it on 3.0mm however didn’t have that sized needles at the time!
Knitted remainder of beret using 3.5mm.
Blocked over 30cm size dinner plate which gave a good size.
Loved the pattern, quick knit will probably sew in some fine elastic around the ribbed band.
