Renfrew
Renfrew Toque is an exquisite addition to the knitting world, featured in the book [ISLAND][2], a stunning collection of handknits designed by the talented Jane Richmond, inspired by the breathtaking landscapes of Vancouver Island.
Renfrew is a modern toque that beautifully combines style and functionality. This pattern showcases a simple yet eye-catching asymmetrical mock cable panel crafted on a reverse stockinette fabric. The toque is knit from the bottom up and inside out, which cleverly maximizes the use of the knit stitch, giving it a unique charm. Designed to highlight the beauty of hand-dyed, multi-faceted yarns, Renfrew is perfect for those who appreciate artisanal craftsmanship.
This versatile design is featured in a slouchy style, providing both comfort and elegance. Instructions are included for knitting a shorter beanie version, allowing knitters to choose between two styles to suit their personal preferences. Whether you're looking to create a cozy accessory for yourself or a thoughtful gift for a fellow knitting enthusiast, the Renfrew toque is an ideal project.
Yarn Requirements: You'll need just 1 skein of Madelinetosh Tosh Vintage, made from 100% superwash merino wool, offering 200 yards (182 meters) of luxurious warmth. The toque is shown here in the beautiful Cove colorway, perfect for showcasing the intricate details of the pattern and adding a pop of color to your winter wardrobe.
Embrace your knitting journey with the Renfrew toque, and experience the joy of creating a stylish accessory that reflects the beauty of Vancouver Island.
