This pattern combines a simple lace pattern and a hemmed brim for a stylish slouchy beret. The two sizes in the pattern use the same instructions but employ different yarn weights and needle sizes to achieve a slightly different fit. Use fingering weight yarn and smaller needles to knit a hat for a child or teen. Use sport weight yarn and larger needles to knit a hat for an adult.

The lace pattern uses simple decreases (k2tog, ssk, CDD) and yarnovers. The lace patterns for the body of the hat and the crown decreases are both written and charted.
