This pattern is designed for new knitters who want to create something elegant without complicated charts or advanced skills.
The beret is worked flat, back and forth in rows, then seamed at the end — perfect for anyone who prefers straight needles.
The lace pattern is created with yarn overs and directional decreases, giving the beret its delicate texture.
This design is knitted with DROPS Loves You 7 held double (two strands held together), resulting in a soft structure and crisp stitch definition — ideal for spring, summer, and early fall.
Whether you’re knitting for yourself, a loved one, or your handmade shop, this beret works up quickly and looks effortlessly stylish.

Skill Level
Beginner / Advanced Beginner
If you know how to knit, purl, make yarn overs, and work simple decreases — you can make this beret.

Sizes: S, M, L
S-Small - 53-55 cm (21” - 22”)
M-Medium - 56-58 cm (22” - 23”)
L-Large - 59-61 cm (23” - 24”)

Gauge: 19 stitches x 30 rows ~ 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4 inches) in stockinette stitch, worked with 3.5 mm (US 4) needles.
If you use a different yarn, look for a DK or light worsted yarn that gives the same gauge. DROPS Loves You 7 is held double in this pattern, so a single strand of DK yarn is often a good match.

Materials:
Suggested needles (depending on the size you plan to knit):
Circular needles size 2.75 mm (US 2), 3.25 mm (US 3), 3.5 mm (US 4);
Stitch markers (optional);
Tapestry needle.

Approximate Yarn Requirements (DROPS Loves You 7) = 2 skeins
