Fairisle beret hand knitted in pure wool/wool blend

Warm slouchy tam hand knitted in 4 ply/fingering yarn to my own original design, based on traditional Fairisle patterns. Hand wash recommended.

Please do read my description of the colours I've used - I'm trying to avoid confusion which might arise due to differences in monitor displays.

This is a palette of smoky denim blues. It starts with Air Force grey blue and is patterned with baby blue, two shades of denim blue, light blue/grey, pale sky blue, winter white and French navy.

Note on size: It varies a little bit according to the wool I've used, but the berets typically measure 20"-22" (51-56cm) around the ribbed edge when not stretched and will happily expand to 24"-26" (61-66cm). It's an easy fit on the bolster pillow it's modelled on and that measures 20"/51cm around. They are 25-26cm/10" deep, from lower edge to centre point.

POSTAGE: I now send all UK parcels by Signed-for service, after a couple of hiccups. I've increased my postage a bit towards this but it does mean that someone has to be there to sign for the parcel - I hope this isn't a problem, if it is, let me know.
