I first learn to knit when I was a kid. It never really stuck, but ever since I’ve been emerged in crochet I have always wanted to jump back into knitting and make myself a toque.

So here comes the Tag Toque! A very simple and easy pattern using the very simple stockinette stitch with a nice wide ribbed band.

  • Alternate Yarn: Bernat Beyond, Knitca Chunky & Sugarbush Chill

Abbreviations
