Soft Wool Felt Peaked beret – gray plaid

We call this cap a Kepi, after the old French military hats.  We begin with felt that is handmade on a FeltLoom.  We lay our fiber out with a layer of one color of merino wool on top of a second, resulting in the rich, luscious color you see here. We then cut and sew this hat to a pattern created by Nora.  This is a soft, cozy hat that can be tightened with the adjustable buckle.
