Watch Cap

This design is available at Canadian Living Online as "[Create a simple ribbed toque][1]" **Watch cap** This simple toque is about as basic as it gets, and a quick knitter can finish this toque in a day. Made in standard worsted-weight wool using a pattern stitch that's 1/1 rib stitch, it's very elastic and one size really should fit all. If the recipient has a particularly large head, add four or eight stitches. **Finished Size** Approximately 17" (43 cm) around, unstretched, and 10.5" (26.5 cm) deep before folding up cuff; will stretch to up to 24" (61 cm) around. **Needles** Set of five US 7 (4.5 mm) double-pointed needles or size you need to obtain correct gauge. Note: You may also use a 16" (40 cm) US 7 (4.5 mm) circular needle until you get to the decrease rounds. **Notions** Tapestry needle [1]: https://www.canadianliving.com/home-and-garden/knitting-and-crochet/article/knit-a-simple-ribbed-toque
