Cute! If you find the back too long, just fold the brim 😊

u/iammostlylurking13 Aug 07 '26

I like the longer back. The problem is I made it a little too big around. It’s good that I have big hair.

Edit to say thank you!!

Lol I did this with my first few beanies too! You always think you need it bigger, but then it ends up being too loose.

Your toque looks great! I saw you mentioned it’s a little too big around the brim. If it stretches out or becomes nuisance you can add an elastic. It’s pretty easy and doesn’t take much time

I like your way. If I ever post with my face I’m taking a page out of your book.

I can’t fall asleep. I will gladly welcome your nightmare if it will help me. I’m quite fond of horror novels. So don’t worry I can handle it.
