    Guimard - Beret

    Guimard, the gorgeous colorwork beret, is an hommage to the ornately domed windows adorned with gold and criss-crossed by scrollwork and brilliant coloured glass from the heyday of Art Nouveau that still decorate some of our streets today. It's worked in lower contrast colors for a piece that echoes the opulence and glam of the 19th century while still being wearable every day.

    Guimard is worked from the crown down, increasing your way through the colorwork until you've reached the desired diameter of your beret. Then you work decreases to
    pull in the width of the beret for that classic shape before finishing off with a neat double-knit or picot-folded brim.
