1800s Style SLAT BONNET Pattern SHAPED CLOTH SUNBONNET Timeless Stitches TSA-552

Description

Timeless Stitches SLAT BONNET pattern TSA-552.  This is a new, unused pattern in the original factory fold.
From the pattern:  "This bonnet is named after the "slats" used to stiffen its' brim.  Originally these slats were made from hickory or cedar.  The Slat Bonnet was often worn by those who were working in the fields or around the homestead.  The deep brim and long bavolet (curtain at the back protected the face and neck from the harsh elements.  This style bonnet was very seldom worn "for good."  If you are looking for a "good" cloth bonnet try Timeless Stitches patterns TSA-551 Poke Bonnet or TSA-553 Shaped Cloth Bonnets
This pattern is for a moderate slat bonnet, one  that reasonably covers the face from cheek to cheek and has a curtain blinder efect that some of the more severe slat bonnets do.  Ties at the back are used to shape theis bonnet.  When the ties are undone this bonnet lays completely flat for ironing and storage.  As this is the simplest of all the cloth bonnets to make, it is a good pattern for a beginning stitcher.  Instructions include ideas for fabric and options for the different trims that are shown around the edge of the brims."
The pattern calls for 3/4 yard  of 45" wide fabric for body of the bonnet and brim facing. Brim edge requires 40" of rickrack or 2 yards of flat lace. Optional. Stiffening:  thin wood slats such as balsa, plastic canvas or poster style cardboard.
