I made this Heart Stitch Hat for my 4 year old daughter who has a circumference of 20 inches around her head. I created this hat with a Hook, which is similiar to the messy bun hat since I start with the brim. I created a video if you need more assistance. If you want to make an Adult size I would chain 10 for the brim and use an I hook. Take the brim around your head and when it fits around ears and meets together then stop and follow the pattern as close as you can, but change the hook size to an I hook and make your brim a bit thicker with a chain 10. You may need to add a round of dc if you need a bigger hat in comparison to this child hat too. If you would like to make it smaller for a toddler then use a G hook and follow as closely as you can.
If you tell others about my work, please only link back to my blog, but don't copy my patterns to your site. Also you can sell anything you make from my patterns, but don't sell the free pattern. Thank you!
