Litz Beret

**Knitting Pattern for Beret Hat: Sizes S/M [M/L]** Elevate your accessory collection with this beautifully crafted beret hat, designed for sizes S/M [M/L]. Featuring a circumference of 42 [48] cm and a depth of 20 cm, this charming hat is perfect for a stylish look while keeping you warm during the colder months. The yarn of choice is the luxurious Kettle Yarn Co Beyul Fingering, a blend of Baby Yak, Silk, and ethically sourced superwash Merino. You will need just 1 [1] skein of yarn, with 100g yielding approximately 366 meters (400 yards). The captivating colourway of Bronze adds a touch of elegance to your creation.

**Tension and Needle Requirements** Achieving the perfect fit is essential for any knitting project. This beret works up beautifully with a tension of 28 stitches and 34 rows to a 10 cm/4” square, using 3.5 mm needles. For this pattern, you'll need circular needles in 2.5 mm and 3.5 mm, using the magic loop method or DPNs for the smaller circumferences. Ensure you have the right tools on hand: 1 cable needle (3.5 mm) and 1 stitch marker are recommended to make your knitting experience smoother.

**Design Features** The hat showcases a classic beret shape, highlighted by triangular panels and intricately twisting, braided cables that add an element of sophistication. The beauty of the details truly emerges when knitted with a vibrant, busy yarn, but for those who prefer a more subdued style, opting for a semi-solid hue yields a timeless and classic appearance.

Whether you're an advanced knitter or looking to challenge your skills, this pattern is a fantastic addition to your wardrobe.
