The Clara Christine appeared in 1864 as
the high brimmed bonnet began to loose favor.
The pattern is drawn from original Empire
bonnets in our collection and includes a 20
page instruction booklet with detailed
photographs.
The high brimmed bonnet previously included in this
pattern is now an option in the Mildred Augusta
Pattern.
