Notes
Brim This hat can be done with a folded brim like in picture or a flap brim. For the folded brim you will ch25 and the flat brim you will ch11.
Hat size change.
This hat is done in multiples of 8. Before you join the sides together, try it around your head to see if it fits, if it is too big do 8 rows less and if too small do 8 more rows. By following this pattern you will have 64 rows, if doing bigger you will have 72 rows and smaller than pattern it will be 56 rows.
