Rnd3: Rep Rnd 2, dc instead of hdc in this round – 44dc’s

at the end of this round, i will stop the counting since it will be more confusing. just follow your st. it’s okay to make mistakes, you can always correct them.

Rnd4: Ch 3 *FPDC on the next dc, dc on the next st, skip 1 dc, rep from *, join with sl st in top of beg og ch-3

Piece should measure approximately 11″ across.

Rnd12: Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc) skip 1 space

the skipping of spaces in this round is intended for the beret to curl up.

*FPDC, dc on the same st, skip 1 space, dc on the next next space, rep from *, join with a sl st in top beg ch-3.

don’t mind the pattern. just skip one space after a dc and just keep in mind that 1 FPDC is between a dc

TIP: FPDC in line with the previous FPDC of the previous round.

Rnd 13, 14, 15: Rep procedure in rnd12 until there’s only 2 dc in between 2 FPDC.

Rnd 16, 17, 18, 19: Ch 1 (counts as 1 sc) sc around each st, join with a sl st in beg of ch 1. Fasten off.
