This pattern is written for an adult size but it is adjustable by eliminating stitches. Stitch count isn’t overly important here, so long as you work with an even amount of stitches. This hat is worked from the brim up.

My son, who is five, wanted to name this hat after his favorite dragon in the whole world. Rexy was crocheted by me in February 2020, just for him, to help him sleep a little better at night. He won’t sleep without her and he wanted to share a little of the joy she’s brought him with you.
