Instructions for a girl’s matinee set comprising of a matinee jacket, bonnet and bootees. You will need to be able to both KNIT AND CROCHET to complete this pattern. The areas shown in multi colours are crochet, whilst the plain steel grey colour areas are knitted. As I class myself as a beginner crocheter, this pattern is easier to do than it looks. The crochet areas are purely a mix of double crochet and trebles, whilst the knitted areas are worked in stocking stitch. However, you will need to be able to pick up knitted stitches to complete the whole set.

This pattern has been designed by myself so it is entirely in UK terminology. It does not follow the usual ‘shop bought’ format. There are 7 printed pages with clear and easy to follow row by row instructions. All my patterns are tested by independent knitters before they are released, so every effort is made so that they come to you error free.

Although my patterns are strictly protected by copyright, which I ask you to respect, I am more than happy for any items made from my patterns to be sold.
