NOTE: Bonnet is worked flat in one-piece. It’s made front to back. The bonnet can be fixed on baby head with two knitted cords (i-cords), connected to it during the knitting. To make this pattern easier to follow, the sizing instructions are colour-coded.
This pattern is very easy and even beginners can realized it. Nevertheless, I recommend you to count stitches in each row because the proposed yarn Drops Bouclè is very spun. Moreover, I strongly recommend you to make a swatch and to check your tension, otherwise your booties can have wrong measures.

  • how to cast on stitches in Italian cast-on method;
  • how to work in i-cord;
  • how to close stitches with i-cord.
