Feel radiant in the Pavé Beret where Pretty Cloud and Pretty Smooth yarns are held together and each eyelet is set-in like a spiral of gems creating movement and unity in the design.
This classic beret is knit in the round using the magic loop method, from the brow to the crown using a reverse stockinette to curl the opening, an eyelet increase and decrease, and an umbilical-like i-cord to finish. The hat is designed to have 5 cm (2 in) of negative ease. A fingering weight yarn with a mohair silk yarn is worked together to add warmth and a soft touch.
