Lavender Blue Baby Bonnet
Lavender Blue Baby Bonnet
"The Lavender Blue Baby Bonnet is a true heirloom piece. It's lightweight, spring-like, perfect for Easter and filled with textures that compliment, and contrast for a one of a kind accessory. It would also make an adorable photo prop or baby shower gift. Any light-weight fingering yarn/sock yarn should work. You could also make this with 2 strands of crochet thread, or only one strand if you're looking for a preemie/newborn size. It's a highly versatile pattern, and can be made larger using thicker yarns/larger hook sizes. I've included some more specific instructions on the blog."

This Lavender Blue Baby Bonnet is just what one of my Grand daughters has been asking for. I love the how it looks and the fact that I can make it for a 5 year old by using a larger hook and thicker yarn. This pattern is well written and and easy to under stand, after reading all the comments, I think it will would work out. I'm looking forward to making this one for her for Easter. Thank you so much for sharing this free crochet pattern.

I worked this bonnet up over an evening, and it came out just as pretty as the picture. I wanted to make it larger and use some baby yarn (3), so I experimented with different hook sizes until finally settling on a G hook. I made mine in an off white as I want to thread it with light green ribbon. Im also making small ribbon roses for an extra touch on the band.
