Dark mohair is difficult to seam. But otherwise this beret was a snap to knit. It was knit straight with 3 strands held together and then seamed. I would probably convert it to a seamless pattern next time. This is the second pattern that I have used from A Season's Tale. Both have had errata so I encourage carefully reviewing patterns before starting a project. Completed December 2002.

Pattern: Fin Beret from A Season's Tale by Kim Hargreaves

Pattern Errata: There is a discrepancy in the pattern about the needle sizes. In the Needles section, a US 5 and US 7 are listed. Within the pattern, directions are given for a US 5 and US 8. I got my gauge with the US 7.
