Notes

Worked top down from the crown in 1 x 1 rib, the Trusty Toque makes the most of a single ball or skein without playing yarn chicken. Available in six weights for ultimate flexibility, this hat is the perfect quick knit.

We knit the aran weight version with 1 ball of Drops Air #39 ‘Magenta’. Sample is 32 cm (12.5”) long and has a 9 cm (3.5”) folded brim when worn.

You can see our full selection of Air on our website.

The Trusty Toque is also available as a bottom-up hat. See all our samples.
