A simple twisty stitch makes a spiral pattern on this toque. The stitch pattern makes the twist all on its own, and is an easy stitch to memorize.

The pattern includes a chart, and written directions so you can use whichever you prefer. Also, there is a translation of the pattern into French.
I have another version of this pattern in heavier weight yarn here. Both patterns are included when you buy either one.

You will need just over one skein of yarn for the smaller size.
