I have crocheted this beret in a very good quality yarn which is10% wool and 10% mohair for warmth and 80% acrylic making it light, warm and washable by hand or in a machine on a gentle wash. Just reshape it whilst it is still damp.
The colours are very rich ranging through deep and bright reds through to greeny, blue.
The beret is finished with a flower which has a vintage button in the centre.
