This elegant beret showcases a beautiful lace motif in the form of a crown, inspired by a similar motif originating in Shetland on a lace shawl, knit in the late 1800s and destined to be a gift for royalty. The beret is divided into four sections with a crown in the centre of each section. Knitted n the round from the brim upwards, the construction of Crowning Glory is very simple enabling the knitter to focus on the lace stitch within.
Knitted in Excelana 4 ply, a warm and soft pure wool with enough structure to be blocked into shape and to show off the lace pattern to great effect
