New photo for the new year, from my recent Salzburg trip where this little hat did a great job of keeping my ears warm.

Keeping in the tradition of naming things after places where I’ve worked on them, here’s my latest project. I actually made this a while ago, but it’s taken me so long to finish another project that I’ve only just written it up.

It’s a comfy, easy beret in a cute ruched pattern.

I made this hat with a very loose brim - I’d recommend using smaller needles to tighten. If in doubt, try the brim on before proceeding with the pattern.
