Grandma's Beret

Last week I was asked to knit up a hat for my Grandmother...actually she wanted me to start a hat for her to finish, but her hand-eye coordination isn't exactly what it used to be...so I went ahead and made one for her! It's a 5 point star beret that wasn't exactly difficult to knit, but I did come across a new decrease stitch that I've never done before: The Raised Center Double Decrease!! It even sounds a little intimidating, to me at least. :) Anyway, I really do like the outcome, and have very high hopes that my grandmother is happy with it. I'm just so glad I got it done right in time for Mother's Day!!


Happy Mother's Day to All!!
