Multi-gauge pattern
This bonnet is worked flat in a Stockinette stitch pattern. The back is shaped with short rows and the piece is finished with a seam. The ties are worked as an I-cord, though other tie variations can be substituted.
A Note on Gauge
To ensure a perfect fit with any yarn, this pattern is structured by gauge. Please see the “Instructions Hub” to find the correct instructions for your project.
