Tail
Feathers
Beret

a new design


Tail Feathers Beret - a lacey, slightly slouchy beret with a pretty picot hem.
Weighing about an ounce, this hat is light as a feather and downy soft.

Knit in the round from band to center

The lace pattern matches the one used in my Tail Feathers shawl and scarf.

Large elaborate "feathers" near the band ...

... transition to smaller and smaller feathers,
culminating in a starry center
