Toph – knitting pattern
$10.00
Toph is named for the highly skilled earth and metal bender from Season 1 of the Avatar. Organic forms gently grow from the brim of the Hat towards the crown, each created by short rows.
Featuring short row colourwork, each of the Elemental Hats is knit sideways and grafted. This pattern is available individually, or as part of the Elemental collection eBook.
Hat Description
Toph is a sideways knit gently slouchy Hat. It uses short row colourwork to create a motif of 3 leaves on stalks within one panel, which is then repeated all around the Hat. It’s worked in garter stitch throughout and has a smooth crown.

RoseKnitter –
I thoroughly enjoyed this pattern – so addicting to knit! Watching the hat take shape on the needles was fascinating. It’s an unusual approach to hat knitting but the pattern is very well written, and I found the tutorials very helpful. This wasn’t my first Woolly Wormhead pattern and it won’t be my last, either!
Jazminaknits –
Love Woolly’s patterns! This was the first one I tried and it was worth it. I really wasn’t sure about trying the side to side construction, or doing so many short rows! But the pattern is so clear and the tutorials are brilliant – it really makes you feel clever when you finish it.
