In Your Easter Bonnet...


"If the knitter is weary
the baby will have no new bonnet."


However, if the "knitter" isn't really much of a knitter {oh, how I've tried} and if the "knitter" happens to have some of Great-Grandma Cooky's crocheted placemats lying around... then baby will have a new bonnet indeed!


And, the new bonnet will be feminine and fancy with a touch of tatting salvaged from threadbare, vintage pillowcases.


Georgia's crocheted placemat bib was fun to create and give to a friend this summer. The placemat bonnet... well, I'm smitten all over again. It's perfect for a certain Little Miss who I know will be full of fun and dressed with a touch of fancy this spring.
