    Hummel Bonnets

    Hullo all
    I have been working on making my own bonnet for the Napoleanic War perion, by adapting a pattern for 18th century bonnets found in Peiceworks magazine. The results have been posted on the Scottish Living History and Re-enactors Forum (http://scotslhre.proboards88.com/index.cgi) under Hummel/Kilmarnock/Cocked bonnets.
    You have to register to see the posts, but it's no big deal to become a member and it's free... and it's a good place for re-enactors of Scottish Impressions to hang out and share resources.
    I have not seen Kirsite's bonnets, but I have heard from someone who has compared one of my attempts to one of hers that the knit on her's is still pretty open, and not completed felled over. I wonder if it is correct to be able to make out the individual knits? I don't really know, I'm just asking...
    Aye,
