Mommy And Me
Make these matching mommy and me knitted hats in any colour combination you like!
I chose pink and grey because I had just bought some soft Kartopu yarn in those colours and thought it would be perfect for the hats.
You can knit in all one colour or try out using different colours, going for neutrals, brights or a combination of both.
Mommy And Me Outfits
If you like to wear matching outfits and accessories with your little’s then these hats will not only keep you looking stylish but also really warm too!
Modelled by the lovely Kerry and Rosie, these hats are an easy knit for any beginner.
The hat uses basic knitting stitches – knit and purl, to create 2×2 ribbing for the main body of the hat.
Knitting In The Round
I made the hat using Kartopu Melange Wool in grey and pink and knit on size 6 mm (US 10) 16″ circular needles.
I knit this hat in the round on circular needles, so there was no seaming involved, just a few loose ends to sew in at the end.
You could also knit this hat on DPN’s if it is your preference.
