Double pom pom newborn beanie

Cold wind on the morning stroll calls for a hat that pulls down fast and stays put while small hands tug at it. We knit this beanie from a flexible viscose blend that gives easily across the forehead. Dark charcoal yarn meets warm khaki and caramel tones, matching park coats and stroller blankets on frosty days.

Viscose blend yarn

The knit mixes viscose and stretch fibers for gentle give. It sits soft against a forehead without leaving red press marks after a long nap in the carrier.

Paired yarn poms

We topped the crown with soft matching yarn poms instead of heavy hardware. They bounce along on the playground swing and stay stitched through active mornings.

Deep ribbed cuff

The wide lower band folds over the ears to keep out raw wind. It stretches wide over sleepy heads and recovers its shape after being pulled off repeatedly.

Care and wash

Rinse by hand in cold water and press the water out gently between dry towels. Lay the knit flat so the crown and yarn poms dry naturally.
