Stitch Gauge
Using the H hook and worsted weight yarn: 7 hdc and 4 rows = 2" square The height of each stitch doesn't matter as much, you will continue to work the hat until you reach a certain length for each size. Use whatever hook needed to obtain this gauge on the hats. I went up a hook size to gain an inch in certain sizes, so you will also need to go up a hook size on those hats. Finished Sizes: 12-24 Months - circum. 18"-20", hat height 8" Child 3-10 years- circum. 19"-20.5" hat height 8.5" Teen - circum. 20.5"-22" hat height 9"-10" Adult - circum. 21.5"-22.5 hat height 9"-10"
