Winter Bonnets
I have been working on woolen bonnets for living history events. I am looking for patterns or pictures of woolen or knitted crochet bonnets that will actually be warm as well as attractive. I've attached a picture of one I reproduced by looking at a Godey's picture. I would like to find some period pictures of actual woolen winter bonnets for the 1800s. Can anyone help me.
thanks
Ann

Hi, Just thought you might want to know that when I clicked on the Vintage Sewing link it said it couldn't be found.
The other two look like great sites! Thanks for the info :) M<>/p>
