Inspired by a trip to visit friends in Norway, I came home addicted to all the beautiful colourwork I had seen and knew right away that I wanted to design a toque to remind me of my trip. There are two options for the colourwork designs in addition, there is a blank chart for you to try and design your own.

There are directions for both fitted and slouchy versions of the pattern.
