Hi Sarah-
I love this pattern but I have a big head that measures around 23 inches circumference. Would this hat be too small?

Thanks,
Bethany

LOVE the band!!! I’m just discovering how great berets are for not giving a hat-hair-day! Thanks for making the battern available.

I’ve responded individually to those with questions, but since the crown decreases are flummoxing many, here’s the reason it’s written “omit last k1″:

That k1 is actually the first stitch of the round, because of the way the decreases shift the beginning of the round. I could have written “k12, k2tog, k1, *k13, k2tog, k1*” instead, but I thought that might be more confusing. The line of decreases is going to slant continually right in just the way you’d expect, with the yarnovers following on appropriate rounds. You’re going to knit that yarnover from the round below, but it’s going to be the first stitch of the next round’s directions. Email me if you’re still confused!

I am working on the Columbia Beret pattern. I have come to the crown decreases and have hit a snag…….in round 2 it says K13, k2tog, k1* around omit last k1. How are you suppose to do that???? The last k1 is a yo stitch.
