The Blue Beret Pattern (Free Download)

February 19, 2011 By Ashley 12 Comments

In case you missed it through Facebook….you can now download my beret pattern here! I renamed it The Blue Beret from the Adelaide pattern since it is a unisex hat...didn’t want the boys to feel left out!

The whole pattern started with a hat I made for Boo for a collaboration with artist Stephanie Corfee. I silk screened Stephanie’s “When I Grow Up” print for a small limited edition for my shop a few months back. Boo’s hat has led to many, many more hats. Some are upcycled and recycled from t-shirts:


Some are dyed and silk screened:

    Thanks for the pattern. I'm not a sewing expert coz I can only sew straight lines but if ever I would try sewing other than curtains or pillow cases, I will definitely try this and will let you know how it turned out.

    Has any one tried this using sweater material? We live where it is COLD. And my little one has only about 10 strands of hair to keep her little head warm.

      I made several of these out of old sweaters. I can get the whole infant hat out of one sleeve….then use the ribbing from the hem of the sweater for the band.

    This pattern is WONDERFUL!!!
    I have made several of berets from t-shirts, sweaters, sweatshirts, and even from a skirt I paid a dollar for. I use the circle cut from the do-nut shape part of the hat pattern to make a flower to adorn the beret. I just cut the circle into a spiral…about 1/2 inch width. gather the narrow end and form into a rosette.
