I've tried it about five times and I keep messing up :( At first I was going to just keep going, even though I'd made some errors. But my grandma's voice kept ringing in my head "Even if you have to start over and undo hours of work, START OVER!" So I started over. My husband couldn't believe it!

I'm stuck ... wish I knew how to make this happen. I'd love to make this for my daughter!

It is a wonderful thing you are doing.

I made it for a toddler by using a smaller needle and taking out the last row to expand from 48 to 60 and one of the dc all around before getting to the change to add contrast color - it turned out cute. I used cotton yarn in denim blue and off white and it reminds me of Holly Hobby. Thanks for posting.

I love the roll brim hats. I have made two already. Where would I need to increase the stitches to fit an average adult size head?

Thanks for such an easy, simple pattern (I can finish those projects, lol). I am using up my yarn to make these to donate to a local hospital for the children with cancer. Now to search for a bigger pattern that is similar. If you have one, please post it. Thanks again. I look forward to seeing more patterns from you. :)

I just made one of these for my granddaughter who then asked if I would make the same hat for her doll. I just stopped after the top was big enought and started going down the sides, increased a bit for the brim. It is so cute! Johanna

It sounds like you are working to tightly, try a larger hook. It should cup slightly, not be flat.

I have 2 little girls (age 2 and 4) who need hats this Christmas. How do you measure for the sizes you have? One says 20": where on the head do you take that measurement?
# posted by Blogger Pamela : 1:02 PM
 
Measure around the head above the ears.

I have a very dear 7 year old friend with severe Cerebral Palsey. Her long hair is always put in two ponytails high on her head. I would like to make a hat with holes for the ponytails. (about 2" from the crown and 3" apart) Any suggestions??
# posted by Anonymous laurie : 11:07 AM
 
When you choose a pattern pick one that starts at the crown. When you get to the round where you want the openings, chain a few stitched, and skip an equal number of stitches. On the next round, work into or over the chains. That will give you openings for the ponytails.

Thanks for the suggestion. Love your fluffball Pom! (I've had two)

what size would i make for a six year old girl??? love the hat
# posted by Anonymous Anonymous : 7:37 AM
 
I would measure, and make one an inch or two smaller.
# posted by Blogger Suzetta : 8:12 AM
 
Hi Suzie, I love this hat. I made it for my grandsons 4 and 2. I thought they would make cute fishing hats. I made one orange with a green band and one green with an orange band. Thanks so much for the pattern. It was one that I could follow easily. Thanks again, Sharon

I was looking for a pretty hat with no seams for donations to kids' cancer groups. This is perfect. Will put crochet a flower and pin part of the brim up for the girls and do it in camo colours for the boys. Thanks SO much.

i made two so far and I also added earflaps.they are so adorable

I love this hat, but mine seems too small. Anyone have anyideas how to make it fit a 4 year old, bigger hook. I double checked pattern.
# posted by Anonymous Anonymous : 10:26 AM
 
My guess is you used one of the thinner worsted weight yarns (4). Worked with Red Heart Super Saver and the I hook it should have been plenty large enough for a 4 year old.

You could try making the smaller adult roll brim and with your yarn and technique it would probably turn out small enough for a child.


# posted by Blogger Suzetta : 1:32 PM
 
To increase size of hat for an adult would you use a larger hook?
# posted by Blogger susan q : 7:45 PM
 
No I would use the pattern for adults listed on the sidebar.

Thanks so much for sharing your creations with us! Due to hand pain issues, I avoid doing SC's and instead am doing the side rounds in DC's and am trying to determine how many to do. It seems like two rows of SC would equal one row of DC. I appreciate any input from y'all! Thanks! Beth 😊
# posted by Blogger Beth : 1:13 PM
 
Generally that is true, but I think dc might make the hat brim too floppy. Try it and see how you like your results.
# posted by Blogger Suzetta : 1:23 PM
 
Thank you! I still plan to do the brim in SC's. Any thoughts on the sides? I appreciate your time👍🏼😊. I've done nine rows of DCs thus far with the I hook. I do feel bad about altering your wonderful pattern. If I could see my twin granddaughters I could measure and guess a bit.

About all you can do is eyeball it.
