Pattern Description
The Rudy Bonnet has been designed to go with The Rudy Cardigan. The bonnet is made from a rectangle and then folded in half and sewn at the back to create a square shaped bonnet. The bottom of the bonnet is decreased to fit snuggly around the neck. Next an hdc ribbing is stitched onto the bottom of the bonnet and a sc ribbing is stitched onto the front of the bonnet. Lastly, two simple straps are made using chains and sc stitches. Very easy and perfect for a beginner to making garments.
