Mother’s Day is fast approaching for many of us around the world (it’s the second Sunday of May, if you don’t know!). What is a better gift for Mom than a knit? Luckily, we still have a few weeks to get our knitting in! Here is a collection of some of my favorite easy knits, certain to be fun to make and to give.
First up, how about a pair of socks? Socks are the perfect gift for mom since they can be personalized through color and design, and they’re a relatively quick knit. Socks are accessible for all levels of knitting experience!

Cowls are excellent for unpredictable Spring weather. They’re so snug for blustery days, or chilly mornings, while not as bulky as a scarf. Here are a few favorites —
A hat for Spring is always nice! Spring hats can be so fun, with pretty lace and lightweight yarn. Or, you can opt for heavier yarn to make a truly cozy hat.
Fingerless Gloves are wonderful for driving, running errands, working in the garden, and so forth. They knit up in no time and can be made thick or lightweight.
And for those of us who are just a little bit more ambitious… here are some lovely shawls that are 450 yds or less.
