Enclosed are 3 patterns based on illustrations in vintage Butterick catalogs- along with my studies of original bonnet shapes. These 3 bonnets that will suffice the working woman through the largest part of the Victorian era.
View A- (1872) is a fuller style and a bit more "fussy" than the bonnets that would follow- its style looks perfect with the fuller sleeves, and rounder shape of this period.
It takes about 2 1/4 yds as shown and about 2 yds without ruffles
The natural form era bonnet View B-(1878) is a slender style with little fullness, emphasizing long lines with the flow of the bavolet. It requires about 1 3/4 yds fabric.
View C (1850-90’s) was released by butterick patterns in 1880, however the shape of it had been around since long before the civil war, and is the simplest bonnet of all of them, with a fold back brim showing the more practical nature woman was beginning to take when designing her work clothing. This bonnet also requires about 1 3/4 yds fabric.
These bonnets may be made with a quilted brim or using slats and fit an adult lady.
