Summary
A child's crocheted bonnet made from a type lustre thread called 'Peri Lusta' (circa 1910 to circa 1930). The crochet pattern travels from the centre in six triangular sections with three bands around it separated by two rows of cream ribbon threaded through, with the ribbon made into a ribbon bow at ear level on either side. The final row of stitches is in cream wool. There is a half press-stud on one side.
