Source for Mohair Band for WW2 Crusher

I've just bought a really nice EM's chocolate elastique crusher except it has a big moth hole in the band at the front. As a repair would be uneconomic, I'd like to cover it by putting on an officer style olive drab mohair band.
I did this on another similar cap (a clunker I wear at shows) using a modern British Army knitted tie but it looks a rather tacky. This time I'd like to do it properly.
Does anyone have a source for authentic mohair bands ?
Thanks.
