Lace Anemone

Introducing the exquisite Lace Anemone Beret, a stylish slouchy accessory crafted from fingering weight yarn. This elegant beret is perfect for transitional weather, providing just the right amount of warmth for those days when there’s a slight nip in the air, but it’s not quite time for heavy winter woolens. Ideal for both everyday wear and special occasions, this hat combines functionality with beauty.

The Lace Anemone Beret begins with a provisional cast-on, allowing for a seamless double thickness brim that ensures the beret stays securely in place. This thoughtful design prevents slippage and ensures comfort, so you can wear it all day without worry. Featuring a classic lace pattern, the beret displays lovely eyelet lines that gracefully follow the decreases leading up to the crown, making it a charming and feminine addition to any wardrobe.

Designed to fit the average woman’s head with a circumference of approximately 22 ½” (57cm), this beret offers just the right amount of stretch. The ribbed band measures 20” (51cm), while the circumference at the widest part of the hat expands to approximately 33” (84cm), providing a comfortable and flattering fit.

To achieve the perfect tension, this pattern requires 24 stitches and 44 rows to 4” (10cm) measured over K2, P2 ribbing using 2.75mm (US 2) needles. This gauge is particularly important for the brim, as a snug fit ensures the hat stays in place and looks stylish. Whether you're a skilled knitter or just starting out, the Lace Anemone Beret pattern offers a delightful knitting experience, combining intricate lace work with practical design for a truly lovely accessory.
