Do you knit? A bonnet would require you to cast on, on four stitches Knit, purl and K2tog (knit-2-together), increase. You can knit from either the top down or from the bottom up but it would still require the stitches above. I would suggest unaspenser's pattern or there are a number of free basic beret pattern. Basically from a knitting perspective the difference between a beret and a bonnet is the torrie (pom pom) on the top of the hat.
This Loin Brand Yarn pattern gives the basic idea.
Beret,
