Lace Doily Beret

HeartStrings knitting pattern #H03

This beret is constructed in the style of a lace doily with a center start and repeating medallions. The beret is flattering and lightweight for fashionable wear without flattening your hairdo.

Detailed instructions are included for a type of circular center start that can help you practice for actual doilies you might want to make later in lighter weight threads and smaller needles.

Once I started making these berets I couldn't stop! So I made one in each color that Susan at Spinning Bunny had sent me. The colors from lower right to left are Bark, Sunrise, Blueberry Pie and Jeans. Enjoy.
