Look what I discovered in our box of Little House craft supplies - a pattern for a homemade prairie bonnet!
It would seem that my parents created or adapted a pattern for sewing a bonnet like the ones Laura and Mary wore daily on the prairie. Here's the instruction sheet.
If you'd like a copy of the pattern, you can access it in this Google Drive folder. We've successfully made several child-sized bonnets using this pattern, though I didn't take the time to photograph them.Check back often for more Little House-inspired fun!
