Buds and Blossoms
Introducing our adorable seamless bonnet and scarflet combo, the perfect knitting pattern to keep your baby's head shielded from chilly drafts and the sun's rays. This delightful design is not only functional but also quick and fun to knit, making it ideal for both beginner and experienced knitters. Imagine a fresh crop of tiny munchkin-flowers sporting this charming bonnet—its versatility means it’s suitable for baby boys as well, with the option to add or skip the cute ruffle.
This unique bonnet features a built-in scarflet with a decorative leaf-shaped closure, seamlessly combining fashion and function. The front of the bonnet is knit flat, while the crown is knit in the round, creating a polished look without any seams. You'll finish the project with a three-needle bind-off at the back neck for added stability and style.
**SKILLS REQUIRED:** This pattern requires basic knitting skills, including casting on, knitting, purling, decreasing, knitting in the round, picking up stitches (or using a provisional cast on), three-needle bind-off, and yarn over techniques. Whether you’re looking for a cozy accessory for your own baby or a thoughtful handmade gift for a little one, this pattern has you covered!
The finished bonnet measures approximately 9.5 (11.25, 12.75) inches or 24.5 (28.5, 32.5) cm around the face, ear to ear. Please note that this measurement does not include the scarf and is designed with some negative ease for a secure fit. The bonnet depth is approximately 5.25 (5.75, 6.25) inches or 13.5 (14.5, 16) cm, creating a snug and comfortable fit for your baby's head.
