I love Koigu, it has such a nice hand to it, all gorgeous dyeing aside.
I'm a bigger fan of the beret, and if you really loved the look of the seed beads there is no reason you couldn't add them to the hat. Especially in a radiating star fashion along the decreases, it could be stunning. I like amulet bags and small purses, but find I use them far less. A fashionable, slightly eccentric hat makes much more of a statement with such a lovely yarn.
...I'm sure you can guess what my closet is populated with, not to mention my Rav queue >_
