torrie's

[berserkbishop]

i've been sewing my own glengarry bonnets, using MoiRandalls pattern. been using linen and cotton instead of wool, anyway i'm making the torrie out of yarn and got to wondering, what was the significance of the torrie? does it represent
something historical? or was it just a fashion statement? inquiring mind want to know!

I think it makes the bonnet look kind of costumey myself. I would rather have any hat, glengarry or balmoral, without a torrie even if it is heracy.
