Crochet Hat

I found this great hat on the Lion Brand site. I'm dying to try it. If you do, let me know how it goes!

CROCHET HAT:

SKILL LEVEL: Beginner
SIZE: One Size
Finished Circumference 19 in. (48.5 cm). Hat will stretch to fit a wide range of sizes.

GAUGE:
6 stitches = 4 in. (10 cm) in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you less stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook.

HAT
