Canada Toque

By: Sarah Thompson from richtexturescrochet.com

"The Canada Toque is worked using the knit or waistcoat stitch. It is made with a worsted weight yarn (I used Bernat Premium by Yarnspirations) and a 6 mm crochet hook. Under the pattern I’ve provided tips on how to adjust the size should you like it larger. The hat is worked in one piece (excluding the Pom-Pom), and the brim is double thick making it great for our Canadian Winters. A coloured chart is provided to help you with the colour work."

I adore the look of this hat. I was thinking maybe it was inspired by our recent Olympic Winter Games? Either way, this hat has a very professional looking quality about it. I mean, it looks like it was machine made! That knit stitch is a fun one to do. I am adding this one to my list of "want to try"s.

I continue to be amazed by this designers talent with color work as well as her generosity. She could easily sell these patterns online but has chosen to allow everyone free access. Her instructions are outstanding, her charts are perfect, and detailed notes enlightening. Ive already worked up one version of this toque and cant wait to start on the next.
