You will now be working rows perpendicular to the bonnet. This will create the ribbed edging. These rows will be referred to as Edging Rows (ER).

Be sure to ALWAYS supervise toddlers and younger kids while they're crafting. Small items like googly eyes and pipe cleaners can easily find their way into a child's mouth, so keep a careful eye on them to reduce the risk of choking. Puttind down plenty of newspaper or plastic sheeting before you start will make clean-up easier. A cheap tarpaulin or table cloth can be a great option. It's surprising how far paint can go when kids are involved, so be sure to protect a wide area of floor. Keep kitchen roll or baby wipes close at hand for any emergency clear-ups.

This time of year was always my busiest time of year in my etsy shop. Why? Bunny Bonnets. I sold a couple thousand bunny bonnets over the decade my etsy shop was open. By April I LOATHED bunnies. I’m not going to lie, I’m so happy I don’t have to spend 14 hours a day making the same thing over and over and over again this spring. But I may make a bunny bonnet just for my own baby because next year she’ll probably be too big for one. *wipes tear*
