sukha vintage pixie is a flat knit bonnet, on either straight or circular needles. Knitted in 1x1 rib for the brim and garter stitch for the main part. The ties are made using the i-cord technique and the applied i-cord technique. Because the bonnet is knit in garter stitch, the
bonnet is very stretchy and can be used a long time. Age measurements are a guide; using a thicker or thinner wool will result in a tighter of roomier fit. The bonnet be made with merino
wool or with cotton. Cotton can easily be washed, but be aware: it can stretch. Merino wool will keep baby cool on warm days and warm on cooler days.
