About MeThis pattern belonged to Isabella Park. She was a milliner who lived and worked in Aberdeen, working for Hilda Le Fevre for over 40 years.The pattern is for a six-piece beret. There's a note saying that the pattern can be used for a five-piece beret. The folds in the paper, fading handwriting, and numerous needle holes suggest that this pattern has been used often.
