Beginner Colourwork Toque
$8.00
We were inspired by traditional colourwork motifs to reimagine the classic Canadian toque for modern west coast living. Knit in worsted weight yarn, designed with short floats, and three charts to chose from, this hat is the perfect beginner colourwork project.
Designed by Bonnie Groening.
