Flower Crown Beret

I always get compliments on this pattern when I wear it! From the floral motif top to the cabled rib sides, this beret looks intriguing and intricate from every angle. It is worked in the round from the center of the crown outward and shaped as you go. Intermediate and advanced knitters will enjoy the challenge of changing stitch counts and new instructions for almost every round.
