Canada Toque
"The Canada Toque is worked using the knit or waistcoat stitch. It is made with a worsted weight yarn (I used Bernat Premium by Yarnspirations) and a 6 mm crochet hook. Under the pattern I’ve provided tips on how to adjust the size should you like it larger. The hat is worked in one piece (excluding the Pom-Pom), and the brim is double thick making it great for our Canadian Winters. A coloured chart is provided to help you with the colour work."
