Four sizes are included in this darling bonnet pattern, ranging from baby to adult size large. Ginger Sweet is a stunner whether worn as a bonnet with ties or as a cloche. Perfect for historical presentation in an Austen 1800 look or Flapper style and guaranteed to keep one warm.

Full-color photos offer embellishment suggestions. Another quick knit from the Ambrosia Cottage, extra shaping after blocking is in the form of a section which is cut then stabilized.
Easy stockinette stitch, easy shaping and lots of room for embellishing. Makes a perfect gift for yourself or a loved one.

If made in a snug size, the Ginger Sweet is remniscent of styles of the 1920s and 1930s, framing the face. Worn with extra room, the cloche becomes more of a rounded hood shape instead with extra room for comfort and ease with hair styles of today. The final size and shape is determined by the fulling and blocking of the piece.

Dreamy sweet stuff either way and in any size! For more inspiration in embellishing and other hat styles, visit the Ambrosia Cottage group here on Ravelry. We LOVE hats!
