RECENTLY UPDATED Jan. 2018 with additional instructions to make this bonnet with fingering weight yarn.

A soft and fuzzy bonnet that’s sure to compliment those beautiful tiny faces. It is sized perfectly for brand new babies in the photography studio, and catches the eye with a unique floral brim reminiscent of dandelion flowers. Includes instructions for working the crown both flat and in the round. There’s also instructions to make the bonnet with two colors (see pink and white bonnet).
