Instructions
Step 1
For knitting, you will need 200 g of yarn and two sets of knitting needles - # 5, 5 and # 6. Cast on knitting needles No. 5, 5 43 air loops. Tie the first eight rows of the beret with a double elastic band. To do this, you need to alternate 2-3 front loops with the same number of purls and in each row continue knitting according to the pattern so that the front loops are located above the front loops and the purl loops - above the purl.
Step 2
Take the # 6 knitting needles before moving on to the ninth row. Type the main fabric of the beret with a checkerboard pattern. To do this, knit three purl loops, then three front loops, then three purl loops again, etc. Repeat this pattern for three rows in the pattern. Then start the row with three knit ones, then knit three purl ones - and so also three rows. After that, the pattern is repeated again. At the same time, to create a traditional beret shape in the first row, gradually add 27 additional loops. Knit this volume up to row 38.
Step 3
In subsequent rows, the width of the beret must be reduced. To do this, remove 40 loops evenly in rows 38 and 42. In the forty-sixth row, reduce the number of loops by 20 and tie 4 more rows with a "checkerboard".
Step 4
Gently pull out the knitting needles and cut the working thread, leaving a 10 cm section. Insert it into the gypsy needle and thread it into any left open loops. Tighten the top of the beret, pull the thread to the inside of the headgear and secure it with a knot.
Step 5
The finished beret can be decorated with a brooch or decorative button.
