      From step 13 on it’s just one round of knitting , not two. This until the end.

      cast on 72 with a size 7? it came out small

      I tried the pattern, the author of this comment is right, point 10) should read 112 st. (8 sets of 12+2) not 114. Thanks @nm541 for the written pattern Thank you Kerry for sharing on UA-cam. For those who find the cast on stitches produce too small a hat, please check your gauge. It may seem small but when fitted, it provides some tightness for hat to stay. Besides when hat is worn over time, it will get looser. Just my personal experience with this pattern. Happy knitting everyone!

    I agree about berets! I knit many of them, including four red ones-one being for my granddaughter’s American Girl doll, during this past year. For St. Patrick’s Day, 2020, I knit 8 for presents for the St Patrick’s Day party I had to cancel-but I gave everyone their beret or hat. I am definitely going to knit your pattern asap! Thank you, Kerry. ☘️

    I've made two of these now! My second one I used a twisted rib instead just because my normal 1x1 rib felt a bit too wonky for my personal liking, but it's such a nice hat regardless. I collect berets, like a lot of them but sometimes there aren't any in the colours that I want, so I can now knit my own!

    Would’ve loved if this tutorial had time stamps so I can follow each step in order. And also slower demos when you show yourself knitting a step. I’ve made so many mistakes, but it’s a learning process! I appreciate the amount of work you put into making this video for us😊

    • @trose1118
      @trose1118 10 місяців тому

      she is using Worsted Weight #4 medium yarn that could be one problem. You can also increase your stitches to 86 this will fit an adult head size with regular hats...not sure how 86 sts will do for a beret. I have made hundreds upon hundreds of hat but just going to start a beret. Will have to come back and let you know how the increase works. Good luck with your beret. :)
