That's the cutest beret I ever saw!
My my, you certainly know what to do with your hook & needles.
That's so kind from you!
Thanks soooo much, i'm very happy when people appreciate what i do!

What a great beret--I *love* the bow. But I must know, where did you get the wicker head bust?
Thank you!
The head bust is a sister's present from her journey in India!
Isn't it nice? :)
This is super cute! Starting one today! :)
So cute!!! I love it like everything you made!!!
Wow, I just found my way over here via ravelry, im in love with your stuff, the hats, that necklace - to die for! Love it all!
I love the hat. I followed the patten, but my hat did not turn out the same. I frogged it and started over and still got the same result. It always ends up being to loose aroung the edges. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Hi!
I'm sorry for this problem on your hat..
maybe the yarn you're using is larger than mine, I don't know.
Try to make less increasing rows, for example work in pattern until round 7 and then start again from round 10!
Let me know, even by e-mail, if this have helped you!
thank you thank you thank you for the pattern :) i finally got around to making the hat and it's adorable!
i left out step 9 and the hat fits perfectly :)
Thank you for the suggestion. I didn't realize I posted anonymous.
I used Wendy supreme 100% mercerized cotton; dk weight.
Thank you for the pattern. This beret is really cute. I made it and I love it. I had to make some adjustments because when I followed the pattern the hat turned out too big (although my yarn is thinner - 520m/100g).
You can see the hat I made here, on my blog.
OMIGOD!! What a cute hat!! i made this hat and loved it! then i made the deadly mistake of looking at your other website, Etsy Creative Yarn and fell in love AGAIN! i love the black tam with the x-stitches in it. Where is this pattern? i guess i have to wait patiently for this one!
Hi la'keesha!
Thank you very much for your comment!
I don't really have a pattern for the black beret,and I'm not sure I'll have the time to write it down, but it's so easy:
you start as a normal beret, increasing dc stitches till the desired width and just making three rows in *dc, chain 1, dc* spaced by three dc around rows.
Hope you don't mind if I don't write it, and pleae feel free to ask for other helps on making it!
ciao and thanks again!
thank you for sharing this pattern. it took me a few days to finish mine but it turned out well! i had to add a few lines to the edge to fit the head properly but i am very pleased with the end result!
I have one Question about the Puff Stitch. I'm fairly new to crochet and one thing is confusing me. Shouldn't it be- "(Yo, insert hook in st, *Yo*, draw up long lp) The added Yo, makes more sense to me is this correct?
Yes this is correct for making the puff stitch..if you're new to crochet it's surely clearer this way!
Ciao!
Thank you for clearing that up. So far my beret is coming along nicely! :)
My hat is too BIG!!!!! I checked my guage and everything seems right but it always ends up being loose around the edges and too shallow for my head.
anyone know why? I followed the instructions to a T.
I loved this beret!!
I made one but with a 5.00mm hook and it still looked fantastic only a little floppier (which i prefer ;])
I'm making more for my friends. thank you!

Hi Anonymous Sept 17 - I was having the same trouble. Where are you making your puff stitches? Do you make them in the ch 1 space or in the puff stitch above? Maybe that's the problem.
Hi there!
I'm sorry for your problems with this pattern..Anyway the Puff stitches has to be done in the top of previous round Puff stitch, NOT in the ch1 space.
If the hat came out too large you probably have to skip some increasing rounds (where you work two Puff stitches in one stitch), and jump to work on round 10..
Try this way and let me know!
I hope it will help you!
Ciao,
marta
Thank you so much for sharing your pattern with us!! I tried it out and absolutely love my new hat!
http://reeneeonline.blogspot.com/2008/10/project-crochet-hat.html
Thanks so much for putting this pattern up! I just finished making it using wool much thicker than you suggested (it was all I had on hand) and by doing several less increasing rows it came out perfectly and looks just adorable :)
hi im new to crocheting so im having some trouble deciphering the instructions. for the first row where it says 8 PS in ring, do you mean to do the 8 PS in the ring that forms from connecting the chain? it seems a little weird to me, but maybe i've been doing it right?
Hi above,
not the author but generally when we crochet hats, the 8Ps in a a ring (or any other stitches) refer to just using the "donut hole" formed from linking like it was a stitch hole.
Try youtube for videos! There are many videos on youtube teaching to make beanies and hats.
I am having some trouble on the third round. Is the chain 1 space never crocheted into? I am pretty sure that is the problem, just want to double check. Thanks for the great pattern :)
Hi Jess,
NO Puff Stitch in ch1 space, only in the Puff stitch of previous round!!
Happy Holidays to everybody and thanks so much for all your nice comments on my blog!!
Greetings fro Rome!
I love all you work and thank you so much for sharing. I am really into hats this year and love the beret. I am just getting started and I notice the first few rounds say ps in next 3 ps, etc. and then the next round says ps in each st. Does that mean every stitch gets hit or still just the puff stitches?
I love this hat! I made it a few days ago, and I absolutely love it!
If someone can tell me how to post photos, I'd be thrilled to show you.
I absolutely adore your blog, it's my favorite! Thank you for the patterns, they're teaching me so much. I've made headbands and necklaces as well as this beret. I'm planning on making many more things, as well.
What size hook should I use, in general, if I'm using a worsted weight yarn?
I have been trying to make this cute beret and am having trouble. The beret always comes out much too large and wavy after the 6th row. I am very frustrated as I am making it for my step-daughter who loves it on the picture and who usually hates hats. Please help me,as I really want to make it.
Thanks,
Francoise
I love the beret and I have been trying to make it for my step daughter. The beret always comes out much too large. I use the correct yarn and hook size, but it seems to become too wide after the 6th row. Would you please give me some guidance on how to keep it the right size. I am not a beginner and I am really frustrated as my daughter really wants it.
Thanks so much.
Francoise
Thanks so much for posting such a lovely pattern! I made this hat in the last few days, with a couple alterations because I have a small-ish head, and it fits wonderfully and is so cute! Thanks again and great site!
I also made this beret a few days ago. Thank you for sharing the pattern. My beret turned out really nice! :)
its so cute!!!, but i had to skip step 8, and 9 cause it was tooo big for my head :]
should i be chaining up three after every rond because when i follow the pattern the whole piece starts to wave (it's not flat) by the way, I love this design, I can't wait to finish mines
Hi Keda,
if the piece starts to wave it's probably because the yarn is thicker than the one I've used..try to make less increasing rounds, or making one round of 1Ps in every Ps between each increase round..for example:
Round 2: Work 2 Ps in each Ps around, join.
Round 3: Work 1Ps in each Ps around, join.
Round 4:make what was round 3.
Round 4: Work 1Ps in each Ps around, join.
I love this!! Do you know how you would make it smaller for a baby?? Thank you!!
Could you give us another picture of this hat with like the front view of someone wearing it? Ive been trying and TRYING to find a pattern for the beret I envision, and just cant. yours is definaely closest!!
Hello Avery, I don't have that beret any more so I can't make more pictures of it..You can find some more pics of the sold one on my shop:

Ciao!

I absolutely love this! I have been looking for a beret like this for quite some time, and the bow pretty much made it perfect.
I see that you've already sold this one, but I read on your shop that custom orders were possible.
I was wondering if I could perhaps have an idea of the price for this?
Hi Kayleah!
Thanks for your comment..
Well, I usually make custom orders on my shop, but in this period I'm really too busy with my job and as you can see I don't even have enough time to write on the blog..
At the moment I only accept custom orders for small items (like headbands, necklace, etc..), that I can make in the evening time!!
Anyway the price for the hat was $30.00, and I hope that soon I'll be able to make bigger items again!!
Thanks again for your comment and have a nice day!
Ciao,

Hi there!
I'm still quite a novice to crochet, so I have a questions on the 2Pftog stitches in rows 14 & 15:
When you create the 1st PS and ch1, into which stitch does the 2nd PS go?
Thanks for the opportunity to make something so beautiful!! Cheers
Hi Amanda,
the second Ps of the 2Pstog has to be done in the next stitch.
Happy crocheting!
fab pattern. gave it a go and am really pleased with the final result. its a bit smaller than yours but i crochet tighter.
I've been looking for a beret like this forever! Thank you so much! I'm going to try to understand the guide, even if my English sucks, ha ha!
Thanks so much for sharing your pattern! I just finished mine and love it. I'm fairly new to crocheting and thought this would be hard but found it relatively easy! Thanks again!
I'm really excited about starting this project!
What is the gauge? Im using red heart soft yarn (medium worsted).
Thanks!
Hi! Lovely pattern. :D I started working on it, but I believe my yarn was too thick, so I'm going to start with a thinner yarn.
Just wanted to say thanks!
Quick question, and this may seem silly, but when you say "draw up a long lp," you don't need a ridiculous amount of yarn, correct? Just enough to make the stitch puffy? My hat was coming out very flat and I'm trying to figure out if it was me or the yarn. :)
Hello, have you got the pattern in spanish or italian? I'm spanish girl.
Thanks :)
Hi....I'm still fairly new at this but, I learn REALLY quickly from watching...I have seen sooooo many stlyes of berets but none as pretty as yours could you PLEASE make a video for this beret...I'm just a little confused
Thank You
Love this pattern...I tried making it with a worsted wt yarn and like others above have mentioned mine started to get wavy after a few rounds.It would help to get the diameter/size of the completed piece so I can decrease the rounds as necessary.
Thanks
