Knitting! Cowichan Toque





Hello everyone. I wanted to let you know that I have decided to remove this pattern. This pattern was made to look like a traditional First Nation's style from the Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island. The truth is, that it is not fair for me to be posting this pattern. While I have not profited from this pattern at all, it may be taking away revenue from the traditional makers of this style, and that is not fair of me to do. I am sorry for any harm that this may have caused. Thank you for all your interest in this pattern. If you are still looking to knit something similar, please look for a pattern provided by the original creators of this style!

    1. It's a place on Vancouver Island in Canada. The First Nations People there first made the style of sweater in the picture and they are now know as Cowichan sweaters.

  2. I like this pattern and would like to make this toque but don't understand your picture/diagram. Is there any way you would be so kind as to type out a pattern. I am loving all of the other knitting projects that you have posted on your blog (you seem so crafty and are very inspirational). I can't wait to get started on all of them, as they will be great Christmas gifts!

    Thanks for sharing all you do!

    1. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, Mischa. I was on holidays with limited internet access. I'm not sure how to type out a pattern like that. I would have to look into it. If you are on ravelry, you might want to consider asking for help on a forum. I will see what I can do, too.

  3. I'm pretty new to knitting so some of the lingo doesn't make sense to me and I have to youtube a lot of things :) But I will look into ravelry.
    Thanks so much, hope you enjoyed your holiday!
