I can't thank Kelly enough for her suggestion of blocking the cabled beret over a dinner plate! It worked like a charm. Can you tell I'm much happier about this now. . . .
So much happier that I had to take lots of pictures of the beret to show it off to you ;-) I'm sorry about the picture overload, but I just couldn't help myself!

great beret!! i love this pattern, and haven't seen it before. and you look great in it, so i can completely understand your picture-heavy post.
i am a malabrigo stasher. maybe i've got a skein that would work for this? oh, i don't?!? shopping i must go!
It looks great on you - I can see why you wanted to take so many photos! It's funny blocking on a plate, don't you think that the hat looks ridiculously huge when it's blocking?

Oh that looks perfect! Did you use a regular dinner plate or smaller salad plate? I was afraid to try it -- you're very brave!
