These charming bonnets are made in pure wool to keep out the cold and come in three sizes, newborn, 6 months and 12 months. Babies differ enormously and these are based on average sizes. An attractive zig-zag frames the face and the decreases on the crown form a star ( a simpler version omitting this is included ). The bonnet can be fastened loosely under the chin with stretchy, knitted ties.
