✅ The piece is an average adult hat size, for a head that measures 21-22 inches in circumference.

Caliber

✅ After round 13, the hat should measure 15 cm wide.

Instructions

This hat is worked in spiral rows. When you start a new round, use the stitch marker to mark the first stitch of the round. When you reach the end of the round, do not turn the piece or make a turning chain. Instead, make the first stitch of the next round in the first stitch of the previous round.

Use a larger hook if you need a looser fit or a smaller hook if you need a tighter fit.

If the brim of the hat is too flexible, consider using a smaller hook for the brim section. With a smaller hook you will get a denser and more resistant fabric that will not wrinkle.
