Nice hat
I used this pattern to make the hat in the same color as the picture. Unfortunately it is a bit large for mine or my boyfriend's head. Maybe there is a way to adjust the pattern for a bit tighter fit. Other than the fit the hat is great and the pattern is VERY easy to follow for beginners. Thanks!
