As the weather settles into winter, there is nothing more comforting to me than pulling out my knitting needles. Knitting has always been one of my favorite ways to welcome the colder months. There is a rhythm to the work that feels grounding. Stitch by stitch, I find myself slowing down and putting warm, heartfelt thoughts into every piece I make.
This season, that quiet winter rhythm inspired something new. I’ve created a full collection of hand knit hats and cozy winter beanies for babies, teens and adults. Each hat is crafted with care, many using my own original designs. You’ll find soft cream hats with pine tree motifs, rich colorwork inspired by Colorado landscapes, classic winter patterns and a few playful pieces that bring a little fun to cold days.

Every hat is knit using vibrant yarn that is soft, durable and fully washable. The yarn holds its shape and color beautifully, which makes these handmade winter hats practical for everyday wear. They are warm without feeling heavy, comfortable enough for long days outside and designed to last season after season.
Creating this collection reminded me why I love knitting. There is something meaningful about making items that people reach for all winter long. As a Colorado artist, I’m always inspired by the mountains, the forests and the quiet beauty of winter, and I hope that comes through in each design.
If you’re searching for handmade gifts, winter accessories or a thoughtful piece to add to your cold-weather wardrobe, these new hats are now available on my website. They make wonderful holiday gifts and are perfect for anyone who appreciates quality, comfort and the charm of something made by hand.
If you love a hat, but are looking for a different color, please reach out. I knit to order! Thank you for supporting handmade work and for being part of this new
chapter at Wandering Palette Co.
