A Love Letter to Minnesota Fall
Everyone else complains about winter. We built a whole collection around it, because around here, complaining was never going to be an option, you just needed better gear.
Minnesota Doesn't Do Soft Fall
By mid-October in Lakeville, the morning drive starts needing a scraper. By November, you can't leave the house without a hat on. By January, you're deciding between "warm" and "cute" every time you open the closet, and most days warm wins.
That's the problem behind our satin-lined beanie. I wanted a beanie I could wear all day without my hair paying for it.
The Beanie That Started as a Hair Problem
A beanie sits against your hair for hours at a time, and a knit rubbing on it all season adds up. So we added a satin lining to our cable-knit Satin Lined Cashmere Beanie to help prevent hair damage. Same logic as a satin pillowcase, applied to a hat you're wearing all day. It's $45 in charcoal, cream, or light gray, and that lining is what sets it apart from the rest of our cashmere beanies.
The One With Personality
Not every day calls for understated. Our Fine Knit Fur Pom Slouchy Beanie is the one for the colder months when you want the hat to do a little of the work for you. It's a slouchy fit in a soft cashmere-blend knit, topped with a genuine fur pom that's removable when you want a plainer look.

A Minnesota fall is long enough that one hat rarely covers it. These are the newest additions to our beanie lineup, each with its own reason to be in the rotation.

- Polina Patch Beanie, a cozy knit finished with a signature patch, $45 in gray or cream with the PS patch, or cream with the 3 Sisters patch
- Fifi Fluffy Angora Beanie, an angora blend with a fluffy texture that stays warm without feeling heavy, $50 in black or gray
- Darlene Dot Cashmere Blend Beanie, a cashmere-blend knit with a dot pattern, $45 in black/gray or cream/mocha
If You're Not From Here
People ask what the trick is to actually enjoying fall in a state with falls as long as ours. There isn't one. It's an acceptance. It's good coffee and warm hands and wool socks and the specific joy of coming inside from a walk in weather most people wouldn't call "a walk." It's also, honestly, having clothes that make going outside feel less like a chore.
A whole season of hats, zero regrets.
