Petasus Floppy Brim Hat
The Petasus Floppy Brim Hat is a vintage-inspired cloche with a wide brim that you can pin up with a brooch or kilt pin to the side or in front. A pattern for an optional crocheted bow is included which can be sewn onto the folded brim instead of using a brooch or pin. This hat has all the warmth and comfort of a beanie but with its looser fit will not leave you with hat-head! The cloche has a distinctively feminine and sophisticated style that you can wear casually or dress up. And, the pattern instructions indicate where to stop increasing the brim for a bucket-style hat - two patterns in one!

Sizing
Sizes (To fit head circumference, cm/in):
Child (48/19), Teen/Small Adult (51.5-54/20-21), Medium/Large Adult (56-61/22-24)
note: the Child size is intended to fit children aged 6-11 years, but since children grow at varying rates, choosing a size based on head circumference will result in the best fit. The hat is stretchy and designed to fit more loosely than a beanie, so it will accommodate some growth in head size.
Finished Measurements (Diameter (d.)/ Length (l.): cm, in):
Child (15.25, 6 d./16.5, 6.5 l.),
Teen/Small Adult (17.75, 7 d./ 19, 7.5 l. ),
Medium/Large Adult (20, 8 d./21, 8.25 l.)
note: the length of hat measurement is taken flat from the middle of the crown to the beginning of the brim, but does not include the brim.
