Or Berets with circles as they are known by the designer of the particular pattern on Ravelry.
I started with this one,
Hat folded into quarteres
from the top
from the bottom
which became mine. Knitted while traveling and worn pretty steadily once the temp dropped.
on the head
It is knit of Crazy Zauberball on size 2.25 needles. The ribbing is 1×1 twisted rib (which is not holding as well I would like).
So I did it again – in greens this time –
mostly greens with blues
and 2×2 ribbing this time
and since I have at least one daughter who likes bright colors –
reds/oranges and a of blue/green for spice
from the top . ready to start the decreases
From here I think it is on to cowls –
Pretty hats. I’ve done variations of that type of pattern a number of times and always found them great fun.
