Notes

Loving the way this is knitting up so far. The colorway is gorgeous. It is a golden, wheat color and very shiny.

This turned out rather small for me, even though I did block it to the dimensions listed.

I very much want to be able to pull off a beret, but honestly, I just don’t like the way they look on me :( Good news is, I tried this on my 3 year old and she looked adorable. I am re-blocking on a smaller plate and I think it will be perfect for her.

Okay, I stole it back for myself. Apparently the key to the beret is to TUCK the hair. A-ha! In love. I did a little crochet edge to tighten it up a bit.
