ABOUT
Written in 5 sizes for the whole family, the Kenaston Toque might just be the easiest hat you ever make! In this pattern, you will essentially crochet a rectangle of ribbing that tapers off slightly at one end to create a gently sloping crown that also adds structure to hold your pompom securely in place. (No floppy pompoms around here!) You will then work one quick seam up the side to turn your rectangle into a tube, and then cinch the top closed before adding your pompom!
A photo tutorial is included to help confirm you’re on the right track!

Yarn: Worsted—Lion Brand Wool-Ease in Umber

PATTERN NOTES
Skill Level: Beginner
Turning Chain: The turning chain does not count as a stitch.
Stitch Counts: Stitch counts are listed after each row. If no stitch count is given, there has been no change since the previous row.
Reversible: There is no right side or wrong side to this fabric; both sides are identical. Whichever side you choose to wear as the “right side” is your preference.
To Make In Another Yarn Weight: Reference the Measurements section to determine the desired hat circumference and height that you will need to achieve. Work a gauge swatch to determine how many stitches you will need to achieve the proper height. Then, simply work the pattern as-written!
Sizing Note: If you are unsure of which size to make, simply work the Row 2 and Row 3 repeats as instructed until your hat measures as follows:
- 3-5” (8-13 cm) smaller than the head circumference of the wearer for adults
- 1-3” (2.5-8 cm) smaller than the head circumference of the wearer for all other sizes
