This project was actually finished at camp, but I was lazy about blocking it, so it’s taken a while to blog!

\nIt’s been dubbed the EmPress beret, because the pattern is called The Baroness Beret, but Emily has long been known around here as the EmPress.
\nAs can be seen from the picture, she loves it. She had been requesting a red hat for a while, and I finally got around to it.

\nThis was a super quick knit. I cast on just before we left for Camp, and worked on it Friday afternoon and evening at Camp, and finished it late Friday night. It looked very small though, and I was a little worried that I’d need to rip it and start over on larger needles.
\nWhen I got home, Em tried it on and agreed that it was a tiny bit small. I decided to block it before I ripped it, just in case it grew a little, and sure enough, after blocking, it was perfect.
\nIt actually didn’t even take a full ball of Cascade 220, I still have 47g left!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
