Leaf and Flower Beret

This pattern uses the most basic techniques—knit, purl, simple decreases, and yarn overs. The beret is worked flat in back‑and‑forth rows (not in the round) and then seamed along the edge stitches. Everything is explained row by row, making the process clear and beginner‑friendly. Simple stitches, quick results, and a cozy, nature‑inspired look.
