Woodland Elf Toque Knitting Pattern

Have you ever seen a woodland elf on sentry duty in the cold Mirkwood winters? Well, if you had, the Woodland Elf Toque is just the sort of cap you would see them wearing. With cables reminiscent of the roots and boughs of their beloved trees and a nice thick brim to keep their ears warm, this would certainly be the headgear of choice.
