ABOUT THIS BONNET KNITTING KIT

Make your own Madder. We’ve teamed up with Damson Madder to bring you a DIY knit version of their classic bonnet. Inspired by our shared love of mindful, cosy creations, this limited-edition bonnet kit lets you stitch your own winter classic with a colourful twist. Think bold stripes, contrast colour-block edging, and playful ties that bring the whole look together. It’s a clash of colour…but it just works!
