This is a super quick knit and a very flattering tuque. It comes down low to cover the ears and forehead. If you prefer to wear your tuque tilted back exposing the earlobes and forehead, simply do one less of the pattern repeats.

This pattern is quick and easy to follow. The end result is super cozy and cute, covering the ears to keep you warm, but not so tight that it might mess up your hair. The pattern can easily be modified to extend the length thus, extending the slouch :)

Why is this tuque so perfect? Well, it uses less than one skein = great. It knits up super quickly = awesome. It’s warm, soft & cozy = wonderful. And it looks great on both men and women = fantastic! Soooo, the last time I checked? Great + Awesome + Wonderful + Fantastic = PERFECT ;)

The doll is worked all in one piece, with the only seams under the arms. The bodysuit, skirt and slippers are worked separately and then secured to the doll. Finally, the hair gets worked in using the technique of your choice.
