Add to this the fact that they don't need too much yarn, and most of them knits up fast.
And my mania about colors and matching things up...
This season I knitted four of them for me...
Two of them you saw, the red Urchin, and the fair isle one.
Then I though I need some hat to match when I am wearing browns and rusty oranges.
I bought the yarn in the Burda shop. It is OnLine Aspento, and 5 mm straight but short bamboo needles. The pattern is a very heavily modified slouchy version of the Urchin.
A very important note on the pictures. They were shot by Christopher. The first time I let him use my camera on the WWKIP day turned out pretty well. Then I asked him to shot some of my FO's here and I think I have a budding photographer in my hands... He has it in his genes, my grandfathers on both sides did lot of photos and they were good, and his paternal grandma was a portrait photographer...
Back to the berets... I needed a purple one.
Wooly Wormhead's Meret (mystery beret). Done in one Sunday.
