Utilizing simple hat shaping techniques, this reversible striped beret is an easy, entertaining knit. Work your first beret from the top-down using alternating stripes of natural boucle and a jewel tone fingering yarn. Then flow directly into the contrasting beret, using the same boucle and a different shade of contrasting color. Finish them off with a crown bobble on each hat and you’re all set with your new reversible fashion accessory.
