KNITTING PATTERN
Welcome adventure with the True North Toque. This knitting pattern creates a comfortably slouchy toque, perfect for adding a touch of relaxed Canadian style to your wardrobe as the weather transitions. The wide seamless folded brim offers extra warmth, and is highlighted by the classic Canadian maple leaf motif, stitched using the duplicate stitch method.
