Spring has finally arrived!
And with it comes brighter mornings, milder breezes—and the glorious moment when you no longer have to wrestle your kids into 300 layers of winter gear. Goodbye snowsuits, thermal mittens, and fleece-lined hats. Hello lightweight jackets and fresh spring accessories!
Suddenly, the park is fun again. You’ve got your thermos, your face turned toward the sun, birds chirping in the background, and that beautiful realization hits: We made it. Another winter—survived and checked off the list!
At our house, this time of year means one thing when it comes to headwear: Mom & Me Beanies come out to play! These ribbed knit hats with folded brims (and no pom poms in spring, thank you very much) are our go-to. Come fall, I like to top them with fluffy pom poms. But in spring? They’re best just as they are—light, soft, and perfectly minimal.
Why We Love the Mom & Me Beanie Pattern
✔️ Great fit—especially for kids
✔️ Super quick and easy to sew—even for beginners
✔️ Sizes from newborn all the way to adult L (men’s)
✔️ Step-by-step instructions with photos included
And yes, there’s just something extra fun about being able to match with the whole family. 😍
You can find the pattern in my webshop right here.
Top your hat with the best message!
Want to level up your beanie? I highly recommend adding one of my Salty Sewing labels!
All of the velvet labels work beautifully on this hat—either front and center on the fold or stitched along the edge.
Hot tip! Right now, when you mix and match any 5 labels, you get the cheapest one for free! 🎉 You can browse all the labels here.
