This is one of my favourite block shapes which I use to make my more formal berets.
A soft mushroom felt has been simply trimmed with a textured fabric which has a thread of colour running through it.
After blocking the beret two slits were made fairly close together and then I threaded the sewn fabric pieces through the main body of the hat.
Always a little nerve wracking when you cut into something that's already complete!
However well worth it to create this simple elegant look.
It has now been purchased and will be off to a wedding this weekend and then to Ireland later in the month.
