{"product_id":"halo-beret","title":"Halo (Beret)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA beginner's tam\/beret from Kiniki Knits that proves you don't need complicated techniques to make something beautiful. Halo is built on simple garter and stockinette stitch — the focus here is on doing the basics well and letting the yarn do the rest. In the main body of the hat, a fine mohair and silk yarn is introduced alongside the main yarn, creating a shift in colour, a thick felt-like fabric, and the soft, luminous halo that gives the pattern its name. The result is a hat that looks far more complex than it is, and feels extraordinary to wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pattern is written in an expanded format specifically for beginners, with clear, detailed instructions that guide you through each step. It's an ideal first hat project — or a first experience with holding two yarns together — and the two-yarn technique in the crown section is a gentle, low-stakes introduction to working with a halo yarn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePattern Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kiniki Knits (Queenstown, NZ)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGarment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tam \/ Beret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Head circumference approx. 55–58 cm (21.5–22.5\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYarn:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light DK \/ Sport (band \u0026amp; body) + fine mohair-silk (body only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5–3.75 mm (US 4 or 5)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 23 sts × 33 rows per 10 cm in stockinette with both yarns held together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eApproximate Yardage\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYarn\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMetres \/ Yards\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight DK \/ Sport (Yarn 1)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e150 m \/ 164 yds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFine Mohair \u0026amp; Silk (Yarn 2)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e110 m \/ 120 yds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e this listing is for the knitting pattern only.
