I like this style beret that I have been making, so I thought I would write up the pattern to share, it's one of many style's I've managed to come up with, but time does not prevail to write them all to share. Slowly does it and I may have more patterns to post.
I have written this beret pattern with 2 set's of instruction's.
One being for a thicker yarn, which is nice and warm for winter wear and the other is with a thinner yarn that can be worn for three season's.
Below is the three season's beret
Directions given for Small, Medium and Large size beret
(size is altered when making the band section)
Materials used.
AU: 8 ply yarn, 5.00mm hook. US: Light Worsted H/8 hook
Amount of yarn used 50 gm’s
Crochet terms written in US terms.
Special stitches used.
FPDC
Instructions: yo, insert hook behind post of stitch (from front to back), yo, pull through, bring up even with last stitch completed, yo, pull through 2 loops, (2 loops on hook), yo, pull through rem 2 lps to complete stitch
BPDC
Instructions: yo, insert hook behind post of stitch (from back to front), yo, pull through, bring up even with last stitch completed, yo, pull through 2 loops, (2 loops on hook), yo, pull through rem 2 lps to complete stitch
Decreasing with a BPDC
Using the instructions, work through 2 dc’s at once
Note 1:
The first ch 2 of every round is not counted as a stitch, to join rounds you will sl st into the ch 2 as if you were doing a front post st, *come from behind and into the gap between the chain 2 and the very first fpdc and make a sl st, then ch 2 to begin the next round*
Note 2:
You will be working the dc into the gaps between each fpdc and the dc, not into the eye of the dc
