Free Crochet Pattern: Fuzzy Bonnet

 

~ Don’t lose it, add It To Your Ravelry Queue Or Favorites ~

 

 

Introducing the Fuzzy Bonnet crochet pattern! This is the coordinate to the Fuzzy Baby Booties!  These make the perfect accessory set in sizes newborn to 12 months. The bonnet closure has a strap with a button to avoid long, dangerous ties, but it’s easy to change up if you prefer the traditional tie look.

Just like with the booties, the trim changes the bonnet look and makes this the perfect bonnet design to adapt for boys or girls. A simple scalloped edge is so feminine in pink.

Add some furrylicious fake fur to frame the face and add a little luxurious warmth too. And, how cute is that pompom?

 

Alternate colors for a tailored striped look and trim with a simple single crochet border for a perfect “boy” look. Cool tassel too right?
