Morning all and hello day 18. Starting to really power through all these hats now!
Today's hat is a lovely lacy open stitch bonnet made using crochet thread. Of course, you can always use some 4ply acrylic as well if that's all you have on hand. This bonnet is so light weight and just so lovely. I hope you like it too!

Sized To Fit:
28 Weeks Gestation
You Will Need:
Optional: Stitch Marker
3mm hook
Cotton thread. I used Sullivans International natural soft crochet cotton, which is a 4ply equivalent. However, unlike acrylic, cotton thread has no fuzz, so if you are using an acrylic, your hat may be slightly wavy at the end of round 5. This should even out as you continue with the next round.
Special Stitch: V Stitch - (dc, ch1, dc) in the same stitch or space.

7: Ch5 (counts as first dc and ch2), turn, skip the next ch2 space, and the next 2 dcs, into the next dc make a v stitch, ch2, skip the next 2 dcs and the next ch2 space, dc in the next sc, *ch2, skip the next ch2 space and the next 2 dcs, v stitch in the next dc, ch2, skip the next 2 dcs and the next ch2 space, dc in the next sc*, repeat across, the last sc will be in the first ch from the previous round.
8: Ch5 (counts as first dc and ch2), turn, skip the first ch2 space, 5dc into the first ch1 space of v stitch, ch2, skip the next ch2 space, dc in the next dc, *ch2, skip the next ch2 space, 5dc in the next ch1 v space, ch2, skip the next ch2 space, dc in the next dc*, repeat around, the last dc will be made in the 3rd chain from the previous rounds starting ch5.
9: Ch5 (counts as dc and ch2), turn, skip the first ch2 space and the next 2 dcs, v stitch in the next dc, ch2, skip the next 2 dcs and the next ch2 space, dc in the next dc, *ch2, skip the next ch2 space and the next 2 dcs, v stitch in the next ch1 space, ch2, skip the next 2 dcs, skip the next ch2 space, dc in the next dc*, repeat around, the last dc will be made in the 3rd chain from the previous rounds starting ch5.
10: Repeat row 8
NOTE: Place a stitch marker into the first stitch of row 11, so you know where to join your ties later.
11: Ch1, turn, sc into the first ch2 space, sc in the next 5 dcs, sc in the next ch2 space, sc in the next dc, *sc in the next ch2 space, sc in the next 5 dcs, sc in the next ch2 space, sc in the next dc*, repeat across, do not end.
12: This next section will be crocheted around the neckline of your bonnet, (the part that sits at the back of the head and under the ears) you will need to sc evenly around it, I found that by putting 2sc in the starting chain spaces and 1sc in place where the last row stitch was made into a join gave me the neatest finish. You could also sc in the chains themselves. Once you've done the whole thing join to the first stitch of row 11. End off. (Depending on your spacing, you should have between 18 and 20 stitches here)
For the ties: ch40, join your yarn to the first stitch of row 11, sc in each stitch across, when you get to the last stitch ch41, turn, sc in the second stitch from hook and the remaining chains, then sc back across the front of the bonnet in each stitch, when you reach the start of the first 40 chains, sc in each ch to the end.
