If not using bulk yarn what size yarn needle to use?
You will have to check gauge to determine what size hook you need for the yarn you are using. Otherwise the fit will likely come out wrong.
Great pattern! My hat is perfect!
Can I sell the finished item??
Yes you can! Just please link back to this post for credit. Thanks for asking!
My husband’s head is 24 1/2 inches around. How can I make it wider?
I’d continue increasing. So after round 3 of the teen/adult size do another round:
Ch 2, 2 dc in same stitch as ch 2, 1 dc in next 2 sts, *2 dc in next stitch, 1 dc in next 2 sts*. Repeat from * around, join to 1st st. (40)
Then continue on from there with the stitch count of 40.
Thank you so much!!
