Modeled by my daughter Grace.You'll need worseted weight yarn, i used an I hook for the body, and a J hook for the brim. Weave in loose ends as they occur. Since you join at the end of each round, it's easy to make it any color combo you want, like striped or whatever.
Sizing notes: Go through rnd 3 for a newborn, rnd 4 for a baby, rnd 5 for a toddler, and rnd 6 for age 4 and above. If someone has a really big head, you could go a 7th round, just follow est. increase. You could also just forget the brim altogether, and then you'd have a skull cap. Play around, have fun!
