Layla Bow Tie Bonnet test knit


Please find the information below regarding the Layla bow tie bonet Test Knit.

A classic oversized bonnet with a bow tie, designed to keep you warm during the coldest days.

Blending functionality with chic style, this piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail for the perfect fit and lasting comfort. The scarf is generously long, allowing it to wrap securely around your neck, while the bonnet’s back is tailored with just the right amount of fabric to ensure a snug closure that keeps the cold out.


About the Test Knit

The test knitting and final project must be featured on your Instagram, for this, it’s necessary to have a public Instagram with knitting related photos.

The test knitting is run in Google Docs so having a gmail is necessary.

When signing up for the test, it essential to have a good communication and feedback.

Please follow as closely to the pattern instructions as possible. The bonet must be finished by the deadline date, along with the final form ( I create a survey, so you don’t have to send me your notes). If you cannot meet the deadline, let me know asap. If you don't finish your test on time it affects the whole team behind the production of this pattern and it involves intense re-scheduling. 

All comments, suggestions, and questions will take place in Google Docs also I will create a chat group on IG.

Chosen test knitters will be contacted in the upcoming days.

Deadline: 2 weeks.
