"Beret"

This was supposed to be a winter beret, that I made for a friend of mine. I swear I followed the pattern, bought the right weight of yarn, etc etc. But it turned out not to be a beret! That's what I get for not doing a swatch first. I hate doing swatches. :)

My friend likes the hat anyway, so I am going to send it to her the way it is. She's in Washington DC and wanted something warm and colorful, so at least it fulfills those requirements!

I got the pattern here. The yarn is Lion Brand Homespun, which is a chunky yarn that I love and have been using a lot. It comes in lots of colors. This color is Fiesta!
