Here's my finished beret - though it's still drying on a big plate...
I love the way the decreases form part of the pattern in that zig-zag way. Easy to do and effective!
Off to finish those green mittens now!

French Beret
I just found this pattern by chance yesterday - it had been put up on Ravelry, even though the English translation, by Robyn at weebitwonky.com is dated 2007.
It looked very simple, and indeed it was - though the instructions may be too sparse for a beginner.I didn't, of course, have the specified yarn, so I used Rowan's Felted Tweed. It was a nice yarn to work with, although sheds fibres a bit.

G'day Penny. That looks lovely. The zig zag on it looks very effective. Take care. Liz...
Another lovely beret Penny and those mittens look super warm and cosy. Got to say though I think the Gretel one is my favourite! :-)
many thanks for your kind comments on my last post.
keep well
Amanda :-)
