Slouchy Beret with Diagonal Ribbing Detail

Simple Slouchy French Beret with a gathered puffy top. I love it. Made with a simple knit four purl four on the bias. Gives a very interesting visual. I gathered the top for more interesting effect. These hats were a joy to make. I wanted a visually stimulating pattern that was easy and mindless to knit. I found it in this design. The band is smaller and is increased to make a puffy hat that slouches.
