Quick & Easy Men's Hat

I have a new pattern for you today.  This hat is done in Lion Brand Yarn's Hometown USA super bulky yarn.  This yarn is a #6 weight, the recommended hook size is N-13/9 mm.  Hometown USA is 100% acrylic, making it easy care.  It comes in 5 oz skeins and in some really great colors.  The colors are vibrant and rich.   I really liked working with this yarn, it has a nice feel to it; it is easy on the hands, works up quickly and creates a nice warm, durable crochet product.

I didn't use the recommended hook size, I used a P hook.  I was able to make several of these hats last night.  I will be bringing them to the metal yard where my husband recycles.  Quite often, I bring the metals in for him, the guys that work at the yard always unload my truck for me.  As a thank you, I made these hats for them.  They always go above and beyond to help me.  Where they work outside, what better way to keep their heads and ears warm than with a nice home made hat?

Just wondering if I could use regular worsted weight yarn medium to make this hat

Hi Debbie,
My computer crashed and I just got it back, I'm sorry it has taken so long to respond. You can use a worsted weight yarn if you hold two strands together. That should give you enough weight to make the pattern, you may need to add a couple extra rounds for a little more length. Thank you so much for coming by! Again, I apologize for the slow response time!!

Hi Cheryl I am using basic medium size 4 caron 100% acrylic yarn and I cant seem to make the hat quite work I'm following your steps but it is just not getting big enough (the center of the hat) what can I do to make it work?

I did this with an K hook and regular yarn. I added 2 extra rounds and it turned out great. Just wanted to let you know.

Hi Mike,
I apologize for not getting to you sooner. The pattern calls for a #6 Super Bulky yarn, you may have to hold 2, maybe even 3 strands of #4 worsted together to get the correct measurements for this hat. If you have any further issues please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to help you as much as I can.

Hi Cheryl, On row 4 after 2 DC in first stitch, where do the 5 DCs go? The row only inctrases by 5 stitches, but instructions say to repeat after the asterisk. I'm missing something.
