If you have been following along with the 2020 Furls Blog Hop then you know how amazing all the patterns have been!! Each weekly pattern features their Whims Merino yarn in either DK or Worsted weight.

Let me tell you….this yarn is amazing! The stitch definition is gorgeous and the drape is ahhh-mazing!

I used the DK weight for the Mommy and Me Beanie Set. Now, I have never made a beanie with DK weight yarn before so it was kind of an experiment for me. The end result is just beautiful. I love the way it just hugs you, and it’s warm without being hot.

Mommy And Me

I wanted to be sure that I designed a Mommy and Me set that could be work with any of your littles. Since my littlest is a boy I really wanted it to be a gender neutral design. That way you could totally customize with colour, and the design would work well for Mommies and Littles!

Tester Pics!!

My testers for this set were fabulous! They were a great team and really put in 110% effort to help make this design the best it could be!

A special thank you to Faydra from Knottie Hooks for Tech Editing!
