In keeping with the Voyageurs, but mostly because my father's head gets cold at night while camping, I've made a number of tuques. Cloth can be cotton or wool:


Making The Pattern


Outline Pattern On Cloth (four pieces)


Cut Out Pieces


Sew Pieces Together


Turn Inside out and Double Sew Seams (French seam)

Finish by sewing a hem on the "hat band" of the tuque.

looks pretty simple and comfortable! Thanks for sharing. that would be something nice on fall trips.

Any special size that you cut the pattern/fabric?

I make these with my leftover fleece - then donate them to the food shelf. They are fast easy and warm!

Good idea!
