Keely Cat Bonnet

Description: This bonnet is worked flat, starting with a 1x1 ribbed edge. The main body begins flat in stockinette stitch. Two ear sections are established with markers. Ears are shaped using increases on either side of a central stitch. After the increase section, a specific decrease sequence gathers all stitches of each ear. The work is then joined to be knit in the round. The crown is shaped using decreases at four points.

What is a Multi-Gauge Pattern?

A multi-gauge pattern is a single, flexible pattern designed to work with a wide variety of yarn weights and knitting tensions (gauges).

Here’s how it works:

Knit Your Swatch: The knitter chooses any yarn they like, from fingering to bulky.

Measure Your Gauge: They wash, block, and measure their swatch to find their unique gauge

Find Your Instructions: T They find their specific gauge in the table, which directs them to the correct set of instructions (e.g., “If your gauge is 20 sts, go to Section 9”).
