I used a 5.25 mm hook but only option here was 5 or 5.5 any hook between 4 and 6 would work just creates a bit of a tighter or looser fit.

If you need to size up or size down the hat just duplicate the increase or decrease rows until you have the diameter needed to obtain the desired size. To calculate, measure around your forehead in inches. Take that number and divide it by 3.14 to get the area needed at the crown of the hat (area before you just start repeating with no more increases. The average is about 7” which will give a hat about 22”.

You can add in as many colors as you like or make it one solid color as we.
