Full description

Hand Knitted in Shetland Wool in a double knitting weight with Pom Pom on top

Knitted to fit Head circumference 56cms (22")

The beret has been felted to give it a degree of water and wind proofing

Berets started off life as a functional wool cap for French shepherds and military personnel but then it became part of mainstream fashion in the 1020's with designer Coco Chanel credited by popularising it on the catwalk

But, it really gained iconic status in the 1940's and 1950's through Hollywood films and the European fashion industry

This beret is made of Pure Shetland Wool and therefore Hand Washing is recommended but full laundry instructions are enclosed with the purchase

Wool is a natural fibre and naturally repels dirt and odours so if the item only needs freshened up, hang it outside in the fresh air for a time

Although every effort has been made to ensure the colour in the photograph is accurate, colours can vary when posted on the internet
