The Rory Bonnet is worked over a stockinette base with some eyelets and purl ridges added to frame those little faces which also makes this a quick & fun knit. This bonnet has instructions for two sizes and as a bonus it is reversible! Finishing touches include a darling crochet brim and long knit ties.
