    A new bonnet

    So, I have been wanting a bonnet for awhile, but had been unsure what I wanted and needed inspiration. Recently, that inspiration came. I had my wonderful wife knit up a nice bonnet in a dark blue, heathered yarn and I fulled/felted it up a bit. Just last night I added silk binding to the band and made up a silk bow for it. Now I am just waiting on a custom clan badge I ordered from a silversmith friend of mine!

    the finished bonnet...



    Before the silk trimmings and a bit of jocking... out for a pipe break
