I like this beret alot. I just got myself a little confused in the directions for the ribbing. Do I work the ribbing seperate and then attach it to the hat body or work the ribbing right on the hat body? Thank you very much. |  |

Thank you for the ribbed beret pattern. I have crocheted berets before, however I never crocheted on with a crocheted rib-knit look. My daughter wanted this style of beret, like a drop beret, that hangs in the back.
Again Thank you. |  |

HI,
Thanks a lot for the pattern. I am a novice with lots of yarn that was given to me. Can I crochet this hat with a single yarn insteat of using two yarns?
Thanks again for your expertise.

Found your site looking for patterns for Lama Moro yarn. I've had it for years and didn't know what to do with it. Originally, I made a vest, had 2 skeins left. I'm going to try this hat. Great Site! |  |

Dot,
I love the look and thank you for giving the head measurement. Hardly any patterns have this and 23" is just my size. I have searched for a long time. Thank you so much. |  |

Hi Lorry. I hope you find what you're looking for. You might try a google search. I've haven't seen anything like it on line. Good luck with your search. |  |

I'm looking for a beret that had small plastic bangles crocheted right into the beret |  |

That's right, Judy, there's nothing like a fresh bottle of air. |  |

Saw Dot's pic, and wanted you to know you are not alone packing the air! Our air is just a little better when we pack it. LOL.

Gracias, Rafael. I'm glad you like the patterns. I'm sorry I don't know any more Spanish. I used Babelfish to translate your comments. |  |
