The Braided Hearts series has just expanded to now include a Braided Hearts Bonnet!
This bonnet is written for 6 sizes: newborn through adult!
This pattern includes photo and video tutorials of stitches and techniques you may not be familiar with.
The split brim of the bonnet is knit flat and then is joined in round for the body. Braids are added at the end to give it that cute bonnet look.
This bonnet has the most comfortable fit and is full of squishy texture goodness! It has a beautiful braided hearts design.
