Crochet Flower Bonnet – Puff Flowers

Crochet Flower Bonnet is an expert level bonnet because it involves a picot puff flower stitch. I never thought I’d ever make a pattern with such a difficult rating but many of my testers were unable to complete the puff flowers.

The puff flower stitch that is used in this bonnet is similar to the one that I use in my puff flower headband, the one difference is that I added one extra step to each puff as I found that it made the puffs fuller. The extra step is included within the pattern but not in the video. The video tutorial of the puff flower headband is available HERE.
