Rolled Toque

This warm woolen hat is rounded neatly at the crown and finished with a rolled brim, allowing you to turn it up or down as suits the day. It is shaped to sit comfortably upon the head, and its single-layer, medium-weight make is fitting for wear from the 17th century through the 18th and into the early 19th.

I work these toques from a sound medium-weight wool—most often Bartlett’s 100% wool yarn, though Hand-Spun yarn may be had upon special order. All yarn is properly pre-shrunk before the knitting is begun.

I use this same wool for our Hand-Wear, so you may easily order a well-matched set if you care to do so. If the color or size you seek is not presently on my shelf, do not trouble yourself; I can have one knitted for you in a couple of weeks. Simply place a pre-order, and I shall set to work. Hand-Spun orders take longer, as the wool must be spun as well as knit, and may require three or four months’ time. Kindly inquire after the colors I have available.

Washing Instructions: Place your hat in a laundry bag, wash on a gentle cycle with water kept at the same temperature throughout, and lay flat to dry.

You may also wish to keep your woolens sweet and safe with one of our Lavender Sachets.

Your parcel shall travel by the United States Mail, either by swift Priority or the modest Ground service, just as you prefer. Make your wishes known, and we shall see them carried out.
