How is the ribbing, 73 rows, the same length for the 6-10 yr and the teen??? Wouldn’t this be way to big for the 6-10 yr old?

  It’s a difference of 1″ and because of the stitch pattern, it ends up having to work out this way. The ribbing is made to stretch. If you need a different size, check the inch size instead of looking at the suggested age size and use that pattern instead.

Do you happen to have any advice for sizing this up to an adult size? Desperately trying to make it for myself but not sure how big to make the brim based on how many stitches would be needed for each shell. Help! 🙂

Thx for the pattern, I’ve made 2 so far for nieces and nephews. I would love to make this for my older nieces. Do you have a pattern for 6-8 year olds? Also a little confused on the instructions for 6-12 months… with color A, in row 1 it says total 7 stitches. Row 2 says ch 1, 1 sc in 1st stitch, 1 sc into BL in each of the next 4 stitches and 1 sc into last stitch (7stitches) … but isn’t that only 6 stitches?

Help!!
I’m making the 6-12 months hat and it says to make 55 rows.
It’s super long!!
When I turn it to single crochet down the side I have a ton of single crochets.
What am I doing wrong?
Please help lol

  Hi Angel! The 55 rows is for the ribbing at the bottom of the hat. You will crochet the 55 rows then turn the work so that you are working 55 sc into the sides of the 55 rows you did. This is the length of the hat. At the end, you will be folding the rectangle in half and stitching it up to create the hat.

    I probably should also ask, how long does your project measure so far? The ribbed portion should measure approximately 15″

      No you’re not going bananas! It was all me. It was a typo error on my part. I am so glad that your niece loved the hat! 🙂

I love your Dusty Rose and your Santa’s little Sack Hat. I’m trying to figure out how to increase them both to make them for me. Almost done, lol can’t wait to show you my finished work..will wait until they are both done.

    I love this, I want to make one for myself, could you help me out with sizing? I’m not very good at altering patterns. Thanks!

This is adorable! I want to make one for each of our 12 great grands, and their parents for Christmas photos. And, I love your label – may I ask where you found them?

  Thank you Becky! The labels are actually custom buttons that I purchased on Etsy! You can find them here through my affiliate link: http://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=6220&awinaffid=256927&clickref=&p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.etsy.com%2Flisting%2F62136037%2F1-inch-custom-engraved-buttons-with-your%3Fref%3Dshop_home_active_4
