I had much leftover yarn, so I thought I’d use it to make a crochet beret.

I mainly used rust-colored, pink, brown and yellow yarn scraps; sometimes doubling or tripling yarns to make them of an even thickness.

I used up cotton embroidery floss and pearl cotton thread, polyester sock yarn, and the grey is handspun wool yarn. The apricot-colored in the background is my alpaca and silk knitted lace loop scarf.
