If you’re looking for sweet and cozy headwear to knit, free bonnet knitting patterns are a great place to start. I’ve designed dozens of bonnets for babies, toddlers, and photo props—and they’re all available for free right here on my blog. Some of my favorite yarns for baby bonnets are soft, lightweight, and gentle on delicate skin. I love using KnitPicks Capretta (affiliate link) and KnitPicks Capra (affiliate link) for a touch of luxury, Hobbii Fluffy Day (affiliate link) for a fluffy finish, and KnitPicks Heatherly (affiliate link) for smooth stitch definition and easy care.
No matter your style or skill level, there’s something for everyone in this collection of free bonnet knitting patterns. You’ll find cozy cables, delicate lace, playful bobbles, bold texture, simple stockinette, and sweet pixie shapes—all designed to fit tiny heads with charm and comfort. Whether you’re knitting for a newborn photo shoot, a special baby gift, or just for fun, you’re sure to find a pattern that inspires your needles.
