Tania Beret Knitting Pattern
Tania Beret
By Kate Atherley
A classic beret with a contemporary fit, the Tania Beret is knit in the round from the bottom up, starting with a snug ribbed band and transitioning into a smooth stockinette body and tapered crown. Designed for intermediate knitters, this project is perfect for showcasing soft, lightweight yarns like Amano Ayni. With four sizes to choose from and elegant shaping throughout, it’s a stylish accessory for any season.
