The Tettegouche Toque Pattern
This is NOT a listing for a finished hat. This is a DIGITAL DOWNLOAD that will expire 24 hours after first download so please keep that in mind when you decide where to download the file.
The Tettegouche Toque is a double brim worsted weight hat pattern that includes bonus instructions to make an ear warmer in addition to a hat. This pattern is knit in the round on 5mm (US 8) needles.
Three sizes are included for kids as young as 6 on up to a man sized hat. Speaking of men...This fair isle pattern is great for guys, but still looks stunning on women. You will use at least 3 colors of yarn with the option to add a 4th accent color and to make the brim a different color than the body of the hat.
So many options! Ear warmer can be made narrow/wide/ double thick/single layer/fleece lined. Photos and video links of bind of techniques and how to join a double brim are included.
I write my patterns so beginners can succeed! The pattern is 7 pages long, but fear not, you do NOT have to print the entire thing. The 7th page is a worksheet that has the meat of the pattern condensed for easy reference while you work. Read through the pattern on your device and then only print the one page.
