Weird Canadian Question

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...

I grew up (in North Carolina) calling that sort of hat a toboggan. Don't ask me how that came about, but the dictionary says we didn't make it up.
