Another brand new pattern just off my hook and just in time for the Autumn. I must give a huge shout to @jenevs1981 on Instagram for this adorable photo above.
Not just for autumn…
While this pixie bonnet is perfect for crisp autumn walks, it’s also a lovely year-round make for babies and toddlers. Made in breathable yarns, it works beautifully as a lightweight bonnet for spring days, cool summer evenings, and everyday wear.
Bonnets are just perfect for little ones as the weather gets cooler as they stay on their little heads much better I find. This bonnet is the October Bonnet and has a traditional pixie point which gives the bonnet that instant adorable shape. Coupled with a soft ribbed brim and an oversized flower adding some cuteness and sass for the final look. This bonnet would be perfect to wear this Autumn / fall and ideal for photoshoots at the pumpkin patch or in the woods don’t you think?
This bonnet is easy and quick to hook up and comes in sizes
Newborn
0 – 3 months
3 – 6 months
6 – 12 months
1 – 2 years
2 – 4 years
The pattern uses a pretty little V-cluster stitch which is easy to learn and creates a pretty textured bonnet. I have made a video tutorial of the stitch in case you want to check it out first and you can find that just here.
I chose Stylecraft Special Aran yarn to make my bonnet as they have an amazing colour range at affordable prices. However, the bonnet can also be made from any worsted / aran weight yarn of your choosing. Try cotton for a Spring make…just check your gauge is correct as per pattern instructions and your good to go!
So, there we have the October Bonnet. I think this pattern would make a lovely baby gift or a new-born photo prop too. This pattern is ideal if you are a finished piece crochet seller. It is also great if you just fancy making it for that special little person in your life.
If you are not ready to make this pattern just yet and would like to bookmark it for later you can use the image below to save to your Pinterest account, so you can keep it safe.

Happy Hooking
