Crochet Pattern: Parisian Doll Beret

By Amy Yarbrough – 8 Comments
My little sister has a stuffed bear collection that she just adores. But like every little girl she also has a baby doll. She often begs me to crochet clothing for her doll, so I decided to pull this project out of the hat. She’s pleased with it but I think she would have been happier if it had been pink!
This project is quick and easy, and will make a wonderful gift for any little girl!

Pom-pom

Using two fingers or a kitchen fork, wrap yarn around 30 times. With a yarn needle, loop around middle of wrapped yarn and tie very tightly, pulling off fingers or fork in the process. Holding onto the tie strands, cut all loops and trim pom-pom to desired shape. Attach to top center of beret with the two strands. Please see the How to Make Pom Poms tutorial for step-by-step photos if needed.

    The beret is just adorable! I think if I do the same thing for my little cousin`s Teddy Bear, she will be really happy and I didn`t know that it is that easy to create this funny and pretty little beret.

    I think this is adorable.
    One question: size ?
    What size is the doll; head circumference ?
    Thank you,

    I make dolls for charity to be given out at Christmas. They are 13″ dolls and hard for me to find
    patterns. I have made 3 berets for the dolls and they fit perfect and look great on the dolls. I am so
    pleased after looking for so long for the perfect beret. Thank you for sharing your pattern.
