Why You'll Love This Cinnamon Beret Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it turns a few simple stitches into a stylish, wearable beret that looks far more complicated than it is. I enjoy how quickly the crown grows when working increases in the magic loop. The structure created by single crochet rounds gives a lovely, cozy texture that blocks beautifully. I also appreciate that it is so adaptable—change yarn or hook to easily alter size and drape.

Switch Things Up

I love to personalize this beret by changing yarn colors; try a two-tone crown for a subtle contrast.

I sometimes use a bulkier yarn and larger hook to make a chunkier, slouchier beret for colder weather.

I also make mini versions using lighter yarn and smaller hooks to create matching doll hats or brooch accessories.

I often add a ribbed brim by working a few rounds in back loops only to give a snugger fit at the edge.

I like to embroider a small motif or sew on a button at the center for a decorative touch that makes each beret unique.

I recommend experimenting with blocking shape: pin the rim wider or narrower while wet to change the beret's silhouette.

I sometimes substitute a wool blend for extra warmth and structure, remembering to adjust the hook if my gauge changes.

I like to add a fabric lining for extra warmth and a smooth interior finish when gifting to friends with sensitive scalps.

I also try color stripes: work several rounds in alternating colors to give a playful, modern look to a classic shape.

I occasionally weave a thin ribbon through the edge after blocking to allow adjustable fit and add a delicate finish.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Forgetting to close rounds with a slip stitch as noted can cause the stitch placement to drift; always close each round with sl st to keep rounds aligned. ✗ Not inserting the marker after Round 1 will make it hard to track the beginning of rounds; place a stitch marker at the join right away and move it each round. ✗ Skipping stitch counts during increases leads to incorrect totals and a skewed crown; count stitches after each increase round to confirm the total. ✗ Ignoring gauge can result in a beret that is too small or too large; make a gauge swatch (18 sts and 18 rows = 10 cm) and adjust hook size accordingly. ✗ Overly tight tension when making the magic loop can make the center too small and misshapen; keep a relaxed, even tension when starting and for the first several rounds.

Assembly Instructions

  • Insert a stitch marker after Round 1 at the join to mark the beginning of each round and move it up as you complete each round.

  • When you complete the final round, weave in all yarn ends securely using a tapestry needle to prevent unraveling.
  • Finish the beret by washing and blocking it to open the stitches and obtain the correct shape and drape.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use a stitch marker right after Round 1 to track the start of the rounds and to avoid losing your place.
  • 💡Check your gauge (18 sts and 18 rows = 10 cm) before starting to ensure the final size matches the pattern.
  • 💡Wash and block the finished beret to shape it correctly and relax the stitches for the best fit.
