We designed this traditionally constructed cable knit toque to gracefully showcase a central yonic motif, topping it off with a celebratory pom pom. The hat is worked in-the-round from the bottom up in a luxurious silk-alpaca blend, tapering to the top to hug that most precious body part: your head. All proceeds from this pattern will go to aid Planned Parenthood of America in their efforts to provide affordable reproductive healthcare for all.

NOTE: The sizes above refer to actual head measurements. The pattern has been calculated to include about 1½in/(4cm) negative ease at the cast-on ribbing before increasing (and shifting up a needle size) for the body of the hat.
