Pattern begins here

Using Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton yarn and 4 mm crochet hook.

Ch 4, sl st to form a ring.

1: Ch 3 (=DC), place 11 DC inside the ring (=12 DC total). Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

2: Ch 3 (=DC), place another DC inside the first stitch (=2 DC together in one stitch). Place 2 DC inside next DC until eor (=24 DC total). Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

3: Ch 3 (=DC), place another DC inside the first stitch (=2 DC together in one stitch). Place DC in next st, [2 DC in next st, 1 DC in next st] until eor (=36 DC total). Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

4: Ch 3 (=DC), place another DC inside the first stitch (=2 DC together in one stitch). [Place DC in next st, 1 DC in next 2 stitches] until eor (=48 DC total). Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

5: Ch 3 (=DC), place another DC inside the first stitch (=2 DC together in one stitch). [Place DC in next st, 1 DC in next 3 stitches] until eor. Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

Round 6

6: Ch 3 (=DC), place another DC inside the first stitch (=2 DC together in one stitch). [Place DC in next st, 1 DC in next 4 stitches] until eor. Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

7: Ch 3 (=DC), place another DC inside the first stitch (=2 DC together in one stitch). [Place DC in next st, 1 DC in next 5 stitches] until eor. Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

8-13: Repeat this process, of adding 12 stitches per round. You can achieve this by always adding 1 DC on its own in every section of each round. A section of a round is the part between the 2 DCs in one stitch which are spaced all around the rounds evenly.

For example, round 8 will be as follows:

Ch 3 (=DC), place another DC inside the first stitch (=2 DC together in one stitch). Place DC in next 6 st, [2 DC in next st, DC in next 6 st] until eor. Sl st to 1^st ch 3 to close off round.

Round 14 (to create beret shape)

Ch 1 (=TC), SC in 1^st stitch, place your stitch marker in this stitch. [Sk 1 st, SC in next st] until eor; sl st to first SC to close off round.

15: Ch 1 (=TC), SC into 1^st stitch; SC into next stitch until eor.

16-23: Repeat round 15.

Tidy up all loose ends.

Make sure you gently pull on center loose end (where we began), to close up centre. Weave in the end to avoid unraveling, fasten off loose end.

Create the 3 flowers

For this part, you will be crocheting 3 flowers (one yellow and 2 pink).

Flower pattern

You will be using yellow shade of Natura DMC in shade Ble (yellow shade) and 3 mm crochet hook.

Ch 4, slip stitch to 1^st chain to create a circle.

1: Ch 1 (does not count as a stitch), place 5 SC into this circle. Sl stitch to 1^st SC to close off round.

Note: Make sure you fasten in your loose end under your stitches, so that you can pull this loose end to tighten original circle made of 4 chains or magic circle.

2: * Ch 2 (=HDC), place HDC into same 1^st stitch, ch 1, sl st through the next SC from previous round *; repeat from * to * another 4 times. Place your last slip stitch under the 1^st stitch where you began.

Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing into project.

Pull yarn gently so as to close off the beginning circle so that the flower does not unravel. Fasten off this centre loose end.

Repeat this process twice with the pink shade.

Sew flowers onto the project

Place beret onto a flat surface, and identify the back of the beret (for me this is where the seam is visible on the brim).

Place the beret with the back/seam facing down, and position the 3 flowers onto the top part of the beret as shown in the photo above.

Sew the flowers gently onto the beret using the long tails and a tapestry needle. Once you are happy with the stitching, fasten off and weave in ends. Tidying the ends on the inside is optional as the stitching will be mostly hidden.
