This cute bonnet is knitted flat using the softest of baby yarns - Sirdar Snuggly. The instructions are given for two sizes, approx 0-3 months and 3-9 months, and are written in full. The bobble pattern is created by increasing and decreasing stitches, which complete beginners may find tricky but those with more experience will soon get hang of. The result is a wonderfully textured bonnet, full of charm and perfect for any baby girl’s wardrobe.

Please note that this is not the tension or needle size listed on the ball band for Sirdar Snuggly but is the stitch and row count that I worked to. This particular yarn is a little thinner than standard DK, so please make a tension square and adjust your needle size accordingly.

Finished size: approx 31 (36) cm 12 (14) inches around face; 13.5 (15) cm 5.25 (6) inches crown to front edge.
