In January of 2024, I got a bit bored when it was -40c. I had a ton of worsted yarn, but was finding lots of patterns these days call for bulky. Holding 2 strands togeher, this was my result.
Ive made likely 90 of these hats this year! I have a big Christmas market at the end of November and then I can work on my 2025 stash.
Looking for a (ladies) easy crochet toque / beanie that works up quickly and turns out plush and warm? Here you go!

You can do anything you wish with your finished creations. While this is how I make my toques, if you do find a similar pattern it is purely coincidental. I just ask you do not copy and post as your own.
