Mama Hat

Introducing a pretty, cosy beret designed for spring — an ideal accessory for those breezy days and a thoughtful gift for Mother's Day! This charming beret is not only stylish but also available as part of our exclusive "Design Your Own Dream Hat" ebook, allowing you to explore even more creative possibilities.

Sizes: For the perfect snug fit, we recommend choosing a size that is approximately 5 cm (2 in) smaller than your actual head circumference. The sizes provided refer to the finished hat brim circumference, ensuring a comfortable and stylish fit for everyone.

Yarn Choices: This pattern requires DK/light worsted yarns, and we particularly recommend Jamieson’s Pure Wool DK, a delightful Shetland yarn that adds both comfort and warmth to your beret. Opting for wool or other natural fibres is essential as they allow the hat to be effectively wet-blocked into shape, enhancing its overall appearance and fit. You'll find helpful instructions and links to tutorials included with the pattern to guide you through the blocking process.

Construction and Skills: The beret is designed to be knit in the round from the bottom up, making it a great project for knitters looking to enhance their circular knitting skills. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced knitter, this pattern is approachable yet stylish.

Pattern Contains: This pattern is comprehensive, featuring both written and charted instructions, ensuring that you have the resources you need for a successful project. Additionally, we've included links to tutorials for various techniques, such as the cast-on method and blocking techniques. You will also find full metric and imperial measurements to suit your preference, making this pattern accessible for knitters around the globe.
