You got it, John D.! Here's another image I found: http://www.nobleknits.com/mac-me-cowled-stocking-kids-cap-pattern-035/

Is this the same as you meant, Christian?

Yes, exactly.

You call that a "stocking cap" in English?

In Canada they call it "une tuque" in French (never heard the English word).

Instructions on how to use a coat-hanger, in French, from the girl in the green stocking cap:

Penis et vagin? Really, JB? Did you catch that part of the explanation?

Isn't that much clearer than, say, Ikea furniture's assembly instructions?

Bonne Année !

It is a tuque (une tuque). It is a typical French Canadian hat. My mother knitted a long one for me and my brothers when I was a kid. There a different sizes in lenght. I don't know if there's a specific name for the longer type like on the pics you showed.
