Baby bonnet knitting Pattern

Make a Baby Bonnet They'll Want to Keep Forever

You want to make something special for a new baby, but you're not sure if a bonnet pattern will actually be clear enough to follow. This one walks you through everything, size by size, so you're never left guessing what comes next.

Whether you're making it as a baby shower gift or for your own little one, this bonnet finishes up small and sweet with a texture that looks much more impressive than the effort it takes to make.

Skill Level: Beginner-Friendly
Finished Size: 4 sizes included, head circumference approx. 36 cm to 42 cm (suits newborn to approx. 9 months)

• 4 sizes in one pattern. From newborn through 9 months, each size is written out in full so you're not adapting as you go. If you don't know the baby's exact measurements, the age-to-size guide helps you pick with confidence.
• That popcorn texture does the work for you. The raised stitch pattern across the crown gives the bonnet a beautiful, handmade look without requiring any complex technique, just knit and purl through front and back loops.
• Works up small, perfect for gifting. With only 30 to 40 grams of DK yarn needed per size, this is a low-investment project that still looks like something you put real love into.
