Hello lovelies and welcome to day 21. We've stopped counting up now and started counting down! Only 9 more patterns remain to be released. This month has flown by!

Flora Bonnet
Sized To Fit:
18/20 Weeks Gestation
You Will Need:
For the bonnet
4mm hook
8ply/DK weight yarn in a main colour for the bonnet.

2mm hook
Thread, embroidery cotton or 3/4 ply/light/fingering weight yarn to make the flowers
Start with a long tail to sew the top of the bonnet together later.

2-11: Ch 1, (sc, ch3, sc) in ea ch3 space across, turn. - 20sc, 10 ch3 spaces

Fold your piece in half as shown below and sew the chain edge together with a whip stitch. This seam will become the top of the bonnet.
Flower 1
1: ch2, hdc 8 times in the 2nd chain from hook, join to the first hdc. - 8
2: Ch1, (2dc, slst) into the first stitch, (slst, 2dc, slst) into each remaining stitch around, slst to join.
Flower 2

2: (2dc, slst) into the first stitch, (slst, 2dc, slst) into each remaining stitch around, slst to join.
Leave long tails on the flowers so you can sew them onto the bonnet.
For the tie:
You will need a length of 50cm. I used the same thread I made the flowers from and chained until I reached 50cm/19.7”. You could use a contrasting yarn, or some ribbon or lace to make your ties.
Weave the ties in and out of the spaces at the front of the bonnet.
