Vintage Apron Bonnet Pattern

Vintage Apron Bonnet PatternEarlier this week I promised a unique vintage apron pattern and here it is. It’s from Women’s Household Magazine, July 1968–nearly 40 years old! It’s something I haven’t come across before.

It’s an apron with two pockets. Or you can use it as a clothespin holder. Or you can button it up into a bonnet.

I think the wide rick-rack dates the item and I’d prefer something a little more updated looking–but we’re talking about a bonnet. Not quite sure how to achieve that ‘2007′ look . I guess that’s where personal creativity comes into play.

You can download the pattern as a pdf file by clicking n the link above.

The description:

* This unique apron can be put to many uses, first of all it’s an apron. It has two large pockets which could hold your sewing or knitting while you work; could serve as a clothespin holder also. Best of all, it buttons into the cutest bonnet to shade your face while working in the garden.
