This is a size chart for the hats that I make. This outlines the guidelines I follow depending on age of recipient. Head circumference refers to the actual measurement of the average head size. The hat measurement will be slightly smaller as yarn stretches and you want a snug fitting hat. Hat height refers to the measurement from the top middle of the head, to where the hat would come down to on the face. If the hat has a brim that will be folded up the hat height will be slightly longer. If you aren't sure on sizing you can always measure the recipient and give me those measurements to use.
