IBGHD 2019 Day 24 The Ethan Zachary Comer Bonnet




Good morning lovelies and welcome to day 24.

Today's pattern is my personal smallest for this years releases, coming in at 26 weeks gestation. This little bonnet uses the waistcoat or fake knit stitch, and is super fast to make. It has such a subtle texture.

This pattern is in remembrance of Ethan Zachary Comer.
