Small Things Bonnet
This pattern includes the both the Small Things Bonnet pattern only. Matching sweater and romper patterns are also available in the Small Things Collection.
When our children were born we counted their toes and their fingers. We marveled at their tiny tummies and took note of their birthmarks. We noticed where they were “normal” and where they were “different”, and we treasured them all the same because they were ours and perfect in our eyes. We dressed them in soft cloth, and we snuggled for hours (and hours and hours). In our minds we hold snapshots of these moments untouched by the present no matter how long ago our children were new: the eye gazing, the sleep smiles, the middle-of-the-nights alone together. It’s the small things we remember, the small things we keep forever in our treasure chests, and it’s these same small things we hope to have the chance to pass on to our children when their children are new.
Small Things is a timeless bonnet design with a clever self-border edge and slipped stitch detailing. Pattern includes 4 sizes to fit a range of babies and children ( and even the spritely adult now and then), and 2 crown styles: a rounded bonnet or a pixie hood. Instructions are given for a button closure or i-cord ties. This comprehensive pattern is appropriate for intermediate knitters or the advanced beginner wanting to stretch a little.
