This ear protector is a combination of CROCHET and KNIT - Head part is crocheted and ears are knitted.
Flies are not a horse's best friend, but a fly bonnet can be. A horse has little hope against these flying pests. A fly bonnet provides a safe and natural fly remedy.
Those who know how to crochet can make a handcrafted bonnet. A crocheted or knitted bonnet is not only practical but also attractive. This project is well-suited for the beginner or intermediate crocheter
These not only save horse ears from insects, dust, frost etc.but look amazing when made in colours to suit your horse.
English written PATTERN includes many detailed photos of working procedure "step by step"
A beginning crocheter-knitter will easily follow.
I recommend 100% cotton yarn CAMILLA (please see photos) for regular size.
