The Convertible Bonnet
The Convertible Bonnet
The Katharine Knitwear Collection is inspired by the iconic style of Katharine Hepburn. She was a pioneer for pants for women, and miles away from most other style icons at the time. The bonnet is inspired by the way she wore shawls and scarfs as head pieces.
Construction
Worked from the center front and down. The edge is double knitted. It will look like a U-shape to start with. The lower edge is started in the center back and after the sts in the back are casted off while working in the double knitting technique, you work this edge with the edge around the face for cords.
