Finally — a bonnet that doesn’t scream ‘costume’! 🎩➡️👶 This one feels like a quiet hug for baby’s head: breathable, sculptural but soft, and so thoughtfully shaped. Paired it with a linen romper — instant ‘vintage storybook’ vibes 📖💕 My go-to for weekend outings. 10/10 would gift to a new parent! 🎁

Pretty, yes — but the ties came untied twice during a short walk 😣 Had to stop and re-knot. Also, after one gentle hand wash, the edge lost a bit of definition. Disappointed because I *wanted* to love it. 🥲 Might try again with tighter knots… but hesitant.

My daughter smiles every time I put it on — like she *knows* it’s special 😂🌸 Super stretchy ribbed crown, gentle elastic-free fit, and the color is even prettier in person! Got 3 compliments in one park visit. Total mood booster. 🌟👶💫

Light as air 🌬️ and looks like it came from a Parisian baby boutique! Fits true to size for my 4-month-old. Love the subtle lace-like texture — not too fussy, just sweet and timeless. ⏳ One tiny note: hand-wash only, so plan ahead! 🧼💙

This bonnet made my newborn’s hospital discharge photos magical ✨ Soft, airy, and so delicately finished — no scratchy seams! Even my skeptical mom (a lifelong knitter!) said, ‘That’s heirloom quality.’ 🫶 Worth every penny. 💛

Adorable and well-made — but sizing runs *just* small. My 9-month-old fits, but barely (no room to grow). 😅 Would recommend sizing up if your little one has average-to-full head circumference. Still lovely though — gets daily wear! 🧶🌞
Mea*******rthe
My wife knits too — and she said, ‘Whoa, this is pro-level texture!’ 😲 Soft merino-like feel, gentle on baby’s skin, and that subtle ruffled brim? Chef’s kiss 👨🍳💕 Perfect for photos AND practical wear. Already ordered a second in sage green! 🌿
Miss B************nd IV
Beautiful craftsmanship! 🧵 The stitches are tight and even, and it fits snugly without being tight. Only reason it’s not 5 stars: the ribbon ties are *slightly* short for thicker baby hair — but a quick knot fix solved it! 😅 Still adore it. 🌸

Cute, lightweight, and stays put! 👶🌿 My daughter wore it all morning at the farmer’s market — no slipping, no fuss. The ivory tone is dreamy and matches everything. So glad I chose this bonnet over flashier (but less comfy) options! 💕

Absolutely in love with this Meadow Rue Bonnet! 😊 So soft, perfectly sized for my 6-month-old, and the delicate knit details make it look handmade 🧶✨ Gets compliments everywhere — even at the pediatrician’s office! Feels breathable for summer strolls 🌞👶
