Bonnet Bivouac ~ Atelier Emilie

BIVOUAC is a basic hat with a hipster and sailor touch, easy to slip to your bag whenever you need it. Knitted entirely in rib, it can be worn on both sides and is available in a short version for a slightly slouchy effect or with the band folded up. This hat is knitted in the round and seamless. It is as nice to knit as it is to wear by the whole family !
