The Rosa Pixie Hat
It's been really cold here lately. So I wanted to make my great niece a hat that would cover her ears. I designed this bonnet for her. I used the pumpkin color because she was wearing a sweater in that color one day. She is such a cutie.
I recently saw the herringbone half double crochet stitch and it's quite fun! It's an easy stitch but not as fast for me as doing a normal half double but I do enjoy it and it has a nice look to it when you are finished. I hope you enjoy making this bonnet with the herringbone half double crochet.
So far, I have only made it for one size. Toddler size. If you want to make it smaller or larger, adjust the ribbing. When making the ribbing, try it on the child, or measure their head from one side to the other. I may add more sizes later.
