Good heavens man! A toque is as follows:
"A toque or tuque (Canadian French: tuque, sometimes also spelled touque in English[dubious – discuss]) is a knitted hat, originally of wool though now often of synthetic fibers, that is designed to provide warmth in winter. All tuques are tapered, they sometimes have ear-flaps, and may be topped with a pom-pon, this style of tuque is sometimes referred to as a sherpa.[citation needed] Tuques may have a folded brim, or none, and may be worn tightly fitting the skull or loose on top although the latter is considered more standard. The tuque usually is considered Canada's national winter hat, much like the fur hat is in Russia." Courtesy of Wikipedia.
Bonhomme de Neige is a fat snow man found rampaging through the streets of Quebec City in the winter ( and he'd look great in a kilt!)
