Finiahing and Terme ol Uoe
Weave in all ends and block if desired. Add short or long ties using crochet chain stitch or ribbon if preferred, but be careful if you are making this for a baby! Babies can strangle on long ties, so you'll have to supervise them if you chose to add long ties for a baby bonnet. You can work a shorter tie for infants. You can add pom-poms or tassels to the end of the ties for extra fun! Please note that this pattern and photos herein are copyrighted by Sheila Toy Stromberg.
