Digital Knitting Patterns - Bonsai Collection

Final Sale: This item cannot be exchanged or returned.

Description

The Bonsai Sunsuit and Bonnet are a beautiful pair of patterns from our archive. Each has special, delicate details that add a vintage touch to sweet silhouettes.

Included patterns:

The Bonsai Sunsuit is inspired by vintage bathing suits. It's the perfect open-backed outfit for sunkissed shoulders and dimpled knees. The bottoms are worked from the waist down in the round; the bib is picked up from the waistband and shaped with simple decreases to the straps. A beautiful excuse to learn short row shaping and Kitchener stitch.

The Bonsai Bonnet is a sweet summer bonnet with a pixie peak at the top of the head. Seed stitch stripes create a beautiful all-over texture. This bonnet is worked flat, then seamed up the back and finished with I-cord ties.
