A sweet aran weight bonnet that knits up very quickly.

Do you need a present quickly? I created this when my husband told me about his colleague’s wife who was due to give birth very soon and ‘could I quickly knit a gift?’. Torn between being cross at the expectation and knitterly pride at being asked, the pride won.

Ramp up the cute with optional teddy bear ears - modified from KnittiPoliti’s pattern, with grateful thanks

’Capurso’ - a mash up of various words in different languages for ‘hat’ and ‘bear’.
