Measurements: Hats and Headbands



If you like to crochet hats, this chart will help you with your finished measurements.  I always come back to this chart to make sure my hat is the right size for the person I am making it for.  Remember, these sizes are approximate.  If you are making a crochet hat, it will stretch up to 2" depending on what kind of yarn you are using.  I find that acrylic and wool stretch more than cotton.

I also have a chart for shoe sizes, and a crochet hook conversion chart.
