In the 1800's, women were well aware of the damaging effect of the sun on their complexion and rarely ventured outdoors without the protection of their sun bonnets. Sun bonnets of the day rarely matched the outfits because they were often made from old clothing. They sometimes used thin wooden slats or cardboard they called pasteboard to firm up the brim.

This pattern was taken from an original sunbonnet in a private collection in Wyoming.

The Viola's Bonnet pattern package contains both child and adult sizes and authentic decorating ideas too.

Buckaroo Bobbins patterns are printed on paper for more durability and ease of use.
