You go downslope when you ski, but the angled stitch pattern on this toque make it the perfect option to keep you warm despite the opposite name.

Errata: In the original pattern from Willow Yarns, there is a stitch missing in the instructions for Rnd 7 of the decreases. It should be written as below.

Rnd 7: * Sl 1, k1 2 times, sl 1, k2tog; rep from * to end. – 42 (48, 54, 60) sts.
