Beret- Hand Knit and Felted- Sheep Shades Grey Stripes-Colette- Made to order

Description

Colette is a hand knit and felted cozy beret made from Canadian Wool. After knitting an oversized beret, I then mercilessly shrink it by hand. The felting creates a very thick, water and wind resistant hat. The flowers are made from merino wool.
The hat can be worn at a jaunty angle or pulled down low to cover the ears.
This is a hat that will last a few lifetimes. When its time comes, the beret, made from all natural fibres, will biodegrade and become compost for your great great grandchildren’s vegetable garden.

Each hat is made to order, so please allow 2-3 weeks before shipping. I can give you a better estimate when you are ready to order.

SIZING- There is plenty of stretch in the hat, but if I have your head size I can provide a custom fit.

To measure your head, take a soft tape measure and measure just above the eyebrows, above the tips of the ears and around the largest part of the back of your head. Try to not let the tape measure swoop down towards your neck. If you don’t have a soft tape measure you can use a string and then carefully measure the string. Repeat this a few times to be sure that you keep getting the same number.

Would you like this hat in a different colour? Please ask. I’m happy to oblige if I have that colour yarn in stock. I can also make this hat with different flower colours.
