Zero Waste Pattern Using Your Scraps
This is a tutorial video for making the LOUVRE Beret, designed by Liz Haywood. The pattern is featured in issue No. 16 of TAUKO magazine, which has the theme of architecture, and is also available as a single PDF pattern.
The video includes all the steps: choosing a size and fabric; preparing the pattern; cutting out; stay-stitching; sewing the darts; assembling the pieces (with special tips for checks and stripes); pressing the pieces; sewing the two halves together; uniting the lining and outer; basting the raw edges together; binding; and finishing the beret.
You can get the pattern for making your LOUVRE beret pattern from the print magazine, TAUKO Magazine issue No.16 or as a PDF pattern.
Available as PDF pattern and included in the TAUKO Magazine issue No.16
