# Want to practice the rib stitch? Then crochet this Parisian beret!

[7 Comments](https://handmaderosebag.be/traditional-parisian-beret-crocheted-in-rib-stitch-with-half-double-crochets/accessories/#comments)/ [accessories](https://handmaderosebag.be/category/accessories/) / By [greet](https://handmaderosebag.be/author/greet/ "View all posts by greet")

You will find many examples of berets on the internet. Time and of course a lot of ‘enthusiasm’ to design one too. But that is by no means the only reason to crochet a beret, certainly not! This traditional Parisian beret is great for practicing and mastering the rib stitch! This beret looks somewhat traditional, but because of the rib stitch, this one is certainly slightly different!

## The Parisian beret for a charming lady living in Paris!

![](https://handmaderosebag.be/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/parisian-beret-1-e1610531658866.jpeg)

My sister-in-law lives in Paris, the ideal place to wear a beret. So it didn’t surprise me that the next Whatsapp suddenly appeared one day. You guessed it, she asked if I could make her a beret. Of course I did not hesitate for a second. After that I started to have some doubts, and to be honest it took a while to crochet a homemade beret. After 4 tries I was really convinced: “This is it”. I also strive for perfection!

It has to be because Heidi is also involved in the creation of HandmadeRoseBag. She is also my coach and I really get a lot of tips and tricks from her to make my business a success. She is also the person who inspires and encouraged me to realize this. It all started with crocheting bags for my daughter. I had a whole series of them. Heidi recommended that I start an [Etsy shop,](https://etsy.com/shop/handmadeRoseBag) she saw my work and convinced me to do a little more with it. That’s how the ball started rolling. In addition to the [Etsy shop](https://etsy.com/shop/handmadeRoseBag), I also wanted to tell my story next to my products. And here too Heidi is always present to help me on this adventure!

## Looking for the right yarn!

Back to the beret project … Very important to me and my sister-in-law. The yarn should feel nice to crochet with. But the beret should also be pleasant to wear. Of course my sister-in-law had some wishes, such as color and very important: the yarn should also not sting. Using some examples, I got details about what was and was not wanted.

### Yarn choice

#### Color shade

I leave the choice of color completely to my ‘customer’. Seems obvious to me! It will be 2 shades of pink.

#### yarn size

To crochet a winter beret, it is best to use a yarn that is not too fine. For my winter projects, I usually choose a yarn where hook number 4 or 4.5 can be used.

### Which yarns?

As mentioned earlier, the yarn should not sting, so my choice fell on acrylic. After some research I know that the chance of not getting stung with this yarn is small. I don’t really have much experience with acrylic myself, only the [cookie yarn from hobbi.nl.](https://hobbii.nl/cookie-jarbo) The choice was further made based on the description of the yarn and customer reviews, certainly very important.

There are 2 possible candidates. I introduced them both to Heidi so she could pick the right shade of pink too.

### 2 candidates

### [Budget yarn Acrylic DK](https://www.dotjesendatjes.be/shop/budgetyarn-acrylic-dk/?attribute_pa_kleur-acrylic-dk=091)

This yarn has a very large color palette, and the yarn is also very affordable, as the name says. With this color palette it is almost impossible not to find the right color.

### [Amigo](https://hobbii.nl/amigo)

This yarn also has a wide range of colors. You will probably also find the right color shade with this yarn. This yarn is available in the shop where I have already ordered different yarns. Only it is not as affordable as the previous candidate.

### Our decision

We find the right pink color in both options, this time it is the price that is the deciding factor. So we choose [Budget yarn Acrylic DK.](https://www.dotjesendatjes.be/shop/budgetyarn-acrylic-dk/?attribute_pa_kleur-acrylic-dk=091) But there is nothing to indicate that Amigo would have been a good choice, I think I will try this yarn for a next project.

I really like the chosen Acrylic yarn to crochet with. The many trials have had no effect on the structure of the yarn. I think that’s a real plus, with many yarns you sometimes get a woolly effect, but certainly not with this yarn!

## Rib stitch with half double crochets

This stitch is really a special stitch, when crocheting in the round you would think the piece is knitted instead of crochet and if you use this stitch with rows you will get a nice rib. I actually think it’s very special how a stitch can look different because of the way it is crocheted!

### How do you crochet this rib stitch?

The trick consists in not working the half double crochet on top of a previous half double crochet, but in the back loop of this half double crochet. In the photos you can clearly see the difference between the normal half double crochet and the rib stitch. The first photo shows a regular half double crochet, the second the rib stitch with a half double crochet. Because of the rib stitch, the top of the half double crochet from the previous row comes all the way forward.

## Pattern

But the most important thing and what you are probably most interested in is the pattern. For those who want this pattern ad-free, the pattern is available in [my ravelry store](https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/parisian-beret)!

### Size

The pattern is made for adult, 54 cm circumference, and I’m working on a adjustment of the pattern for a smaller size!

### Material

- As mentioned above, [Budget yarn Acrylic DK](https://www.dotjesendatjes.be/shop/budgetyarn-acrylic-dk/?attribute_pa_kleur-acrylic-dk=091) has been chosen, 2 ball (50g or 100m) but an equivalent light yarn is also possible.
- crochet hook 4.5 mm EUR (see [conversion table](https://handmaderosebag.be/conversion-table-hook-numbers/tips-and-tricks/) for other systems).

### Used stitches

I use the US-terminology.

- magic ring
- single crochets
- slip stitches
- half double crochets
- rib stitch with half double crochets

### Gauge

Start with 22 chainstitches, work 2 more chainstitches, which counts as a first half double crochet. Return and work 22 half double crochets for the first row. Then work 12 rows of half double crochets in rib stitch. In this way you get a square of 10 cm by 10 cm.

![](https://handmaderosebag.be/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/proeflapje-beret.jpg)

### Pattern

The pattern consists of 2 parts that are crocheted separately. The first part is the round plateau, the second part is the border. Both parts are worked together afterwards. Unique is that both parts are worked with the same ribstitch, but show a different result. This is because part 1 is worked in the round and part two is worked in rows.

#### Part 1

Part 1 starts with crocheting a large circle, when it is big enough, it comes down to making the circle smaller again. This will also split part 1 into 2 parts. A separate table is shown for each segment, but the numbering of the rounds continues.

##### Building the circle

In this part we crochet the collar of the beret.

Row noRemarks1Chain 202Start with 2 chain stitches and then crochet 20 half double crochets3Start with 2 chain stitches and then crochet 20 rib stitchesRepeat until you have a total of 60 rows.

#### bring it all together

Turn the beret inside out. Pins the collar to the beret. For this it is best to fix the border at 4 points first, as shown in the image below. Then pin the collar even tighter. To do this, stretch a little on the collar. Once the collar is properly attached, hook both parts together with regular single crochets. Finally, crochet the hem of the collar with single crochets.
