Weird Canadian Question

[awanderingbard]

What do Americans call a 'tuque'? I'm pretty sure it's a uniquely Canadian word and as I was fic writing today, I suddenly realized I didn't know what an American would call it. Knit cap? Winter hat?

This would be an excellent time for me to use a due South icon. However, I don't have one. I shall have to rectify this...

Bobble hats, that's cute. It's odd. Here, tuque pretty much covers any hat you put on your head for warmth and elsewhere there are all sorts of different words.
