I am knitting the
tweed beret for my sister out of Manos Del Uruguay, colour 118 (mulled wine). I have gauge (at least in the stockinette portion). I come from a family of huge-meloned people. Yet something is terribly amiss.
Devastating Proof:
It is currently in the washing machine being felted. It will either come out a cute felted beret, or the precursor to a lovely drawstring bag. I shall update you on which.
ETA: HOORAY! It's a beret! Worn by a crazy woman!
It's still a bit big but my sister has a legendarily huge head. She can send it through the wash again if need be.
