Kent's Killer Moss Stitch Beret


What is the perfect hat? What hat looks good on everyone? What hat will gladden your head and your heart? Answer: “Kent’s Moss Stitch Beret”.

The fabulous beret is knit with a wonderful cushy brim which not only feels incredibly comfortable but also makes the beret fit ever so snugly on your head. (In PuNkrAwKpUrL’s versions the inside of the brim is knit in a different color – a typical wonderful Tammy touch)

The body of the beret is knit in moss stitch which gives the beret a terrific texture. The whole thing is finished off with a jaunty little nubbin. Perfect!

 

WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW?

This is an advanced beginner class. You need to know how to cast on / off, knit, purl, and you must have had experience with double pointed needles OR with the magic loop technique.
