A challenging cabled beret with a rolled brim. This is a great project for advanced beginners that will fuel your creative desire to cable. If using Cascade 220 yarn, this beret will fit the head circumferences below. If you want to add a bit more body for a roomier and slouchier beret add 8 sts on to your cast on #. Alternatively if you want a snug fitting beret, subtract 8 stitches from your cast on #.

Additional tips:
If you want to add or subtract slouch from the beret, you repeat or omit rnds 5, 12, 19, or 25 as you wish. Please note that the beret was not test knitted to add more slouch in this manner, but was test knit with less slouch with good results.
When cabling, try to relax and enjoy the process. Working too tight or too loose may result in uneven gauge. Just go with the flow, and try to keep your tension consistent.
