About this Product
This instant digital download pattern contains easy-to-follow instructions to crochet the Frankie DK Beret.
This design is a small, elegant beret that's also reversible. One side has narrow texture lines, and the other side has rounded stitches. Crocheted in DK-weight yarn, it’s sized for S, M, L and XL (21-24 in./53-61 cm head circumferences).
It's made from the top down with spiral construction for the hat body, so it's ideal for self-striping yarns. The self-striping yarn in the sample hat photographed here is Hobbii Yarns Carnival in the Nice colorway.
The pattern uses written instructions using American crochet terms. The pattern is rated intermediate for post stitches.
YARN:
Any DK-weight yarn (#3 Light).
WHAT YOU GET:
A 5-page PDF pattern that also provides links to my website -- www.hatsbyelvee.com -- for technique tutorials and stitch definitions for new crocheters.

Meet the Maker
The Chunky Guy Beanie, pictured here, is my best-selling pattern, with hundreds sold to makers from around the world. The pattern exemplifies what I love most about crochet and knitting: An easy pattern can produce a classic look as well as an enjoyable crafting experience.
Almost all of my patterns use simple, basic stitches. I occasionally venture into intermediate territory -- but only if the end result is worth the extra effort.
One of my favorite activities is to round up a few balls of yarn and experiment with stitches and shapes and color combinations. It's an adventure to find out what kind of hat the yarn wants to be. A sassy, lacy Juliet cap for summer? A rugged, ribbed topper for frigid days? A snazzy fedora that evokes vintage glamor?
I really enjoy doing my small part in bringing warmth and beauty into the world, one hat at a time. My wish is that you enjoy making/wearing/gifting hats from my patterns as much as I enjoyed creating them!
Happy crocheting/knitting!
Elvee
