Good lookin hat....but girls could wear it, too....so why not just call it a winter hat (instead of a boy's hat)? Just a thought

Thanks for the suggestion, dru. You have a very good point. I have changed the title of this post and will consider whether gender designations are needed in future titles.

This is just what it says! I am so sick of following directions to the letter and I end up with a hat that would fit a giant!

I've made this hat with three different size hooks. This is a loose stitch. I make beanies for charity and I've already made this six times. Works up fast.
