This is my best baby bonnet yet. It is textured, cosy and beautiful a wrapped into one bonnet. It is great to keep your baby warm and cozy. This bonnet looks vintage. The shell edging detail adds a lot of beauty to it, looks even better when the edging is done in a different color. The written pdf pattern contains two sizing options. The 0-6 size is written below.
