Pricing update: I have increased my prices to more accurately represent the work that has gone into the making of my patterns. All my patterns have increased in prices, however my newer designs have increased more than my old ones, as I feel I have learned a lot over the years and the quality of my newer designs is higher. The price listed reflects what I believe is fair for the work put into the design, however I understand that the price increases may be inaccessible to some and am offering some tiered discounts for those that need them.

A “Choose What You Pay” model is available for this pattern, allowing both financial accessibility and fair pricing. The buyer may pay what they are able while still valuing the hard work invested to create this design. Use the codes below in order to pay the price listed after each. Choose whichever price works best for you!

• No Code – Full Price = $11.00 CAD
• PK10 – 10% off = $9.90 CAD
• PK20 – 20% off = $8.80 CAD
• PK30 – 30% off = $7.70 CAD

I also offer a Buy 3, Get 1 Free discount! Add any 4 of my patterns to your cart, and use the code BUY3GET1 to get the 4th pattern free! Note: the free pattern will be the lowest priced pattern.

The Lavender Dip Toque is a matching hat to go along with the Lavender Dip Sweater! It is named due to colour blocking “dip” dye kind of look. The hat is knit using the beaded rib stitch.

Sizes offered:
Adult Large (21-25 inch head circumference)
Adult Medium (19-23 inch head circumference)
Adult Small (18-22 inch head circumference)
Child (17-20 inch head circumference)
Toddler (16-19 inch head circumference)
6-12 M (14-17 inch head circumference)
3-6 M (12-15 inch head circumference)
Newborn (10-12 inch head circumference)
These sizes are given as the approximate head measurement range. The actual hat will be a smaller circumference when unstretched. Please make sure to base your sizing off of the measurements, not the age range. Due to the stretchy nature of ribbing, I recommend choosing a size where you fall towards the upper end of the range to make sure the hat is appropriately snug.

Needles required:
US 11/8 mm - 16 inch cord (other size may be required to obtain gauge)

Gauge:
5 sts pattern repeat = 1.5 inches, unstretched (~2.5 inches, stretched fully)
Make sure to complete a gauge swatch and adjust needle size if needed!

Yarn required: two colours of any bulky (weight 5) yarn as long as you can meet gauge.
I used Knit Picks Biggo in Asphalt Heather (colour B) and Iris Heather (colour A)
Note: Colour A and Colour B are switched from how they are in the Lavender Dip Sweater, since the toque is worked bottom up!

Yardage required:
Yardage is given as a total yardage. I used Colour A for just under half of the hat and Colour B for just over half, but you are welcome to adjust the colour “dip” section.
Adult Large - 90 yds
Adult Medium - 80 yds
Adult Small - 70 yds
Child - 60 yds
Toddler - 50 yds
6-12 M - 40 yds
3-6 M - 30 yds
Newborn - 25 yds
Note: Yardage is an approximation and is calculated using the recommended length. Allow for extra yardage if choosing to do any modification. The yardage can vary depending on your gauge and knitting, so I always recommend buying extra in case you require more yardage.

Extra notions required:
One stitch marker (BOR marker)
Scissors
Yarn needle
Measuring tape
Row counter is recommended!
