Baby Bonnet:

Fig 1

Hi friends,
Last week I made this bonnet matching to that T2P2R1 crochet sweater.
The technique is some what like crochet booty. See my post on 3 Sep 2018,

So it is very simple to make and good in fitting.

Fig 3

 To start with make 67 foundation chains.
R 1: Starting from second ch, sc on each st.
R 2 (WS): Row of Cluster stitch
R 3: Ch 3, dc on each st.
R 4: (WS) Cluster st.
See fig 2.

Fig 5

Repeat R 1 to R 4 till the height is 6" - 6.5". End with
R3 and bind off.
Thus rectangle 13" X 6" is formed. Fig 3.





Now join the yarn at 23rd st from starting.
Work only 22 sts with sc in each st. See fig 4
Repeat this row till the height of this middle extended part is 4.5"- 4.7", (Fig 5) equals to the one third part of the rectangle which we skipped. Bind off. .

Fig 7

Now we have to sew the two parts (One side of the extended part with the skipped 1/3 part of original rectangle we made) as shown in fig 6. Similarly sew another side of extended part with the remaining 22 sts part of original rectangle.

Now we get the shape of bonnet as shown in fig 7

Fig 8

Belt: Join the yarn at one end make 35 chain turn and make sc on each st starting from second. Then make sc on each st of lower portion of the cap (all the three sides), when reach at another end make 35 chains again then turn and sc on each ch starting from second.
Here also as in case of sweater we make ball instead of pom-pom to match the design. See fig 8.
Make two balls as said in sweater and attach them to each belt.


Here is the beautiful set of pink colour is ready for your most beautiful angel. See fig 9.
