Notes

Worked bottom up from the brim in 1 x 1 rib, the Trusty Toque is a easy pattern for a new knitter wanting to make their first toque. Available in six weights for ultimate flexibility, this hat is the perfect quick knit.

We knit the aran weight version with 1 ball of Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt #1044 ‘Natural Tutti Frutti Tweed’ held with 1 ball of Sandnes Garn Alpakka Følgetråd #2321 ‘Marzipan’’. Sample is 33 cm (13”) long and has a 10 cm (4”) folded brim when worn.

You can see our full selection of Peer Gynt and Alpakka Følgetråd on our website.

The Trusty Toque is also available as a top-down hat. See all our samples.
