The Feathers Bonnet is a sweet little baby cap with lace details, a whimsical pixie peak and i-cord ties. The feathery lace stitch is simple, yet engaging to knit and easy-peasy german short rows are utilized to shape the pixie peak. This charming bonnet makes a quick and special knit for babies of all ages!
