I use the same pattern as above the basic single crochet pattern. I use a smaller hook and a thinner yarn. Once you have the desired crown size, just stop working an increase row and continue the number of stitches until you have the right length for the sides. Then finish off your hat and weave in any ends. I usually do not add any brims to the small hats.  See the head sizes above.</B></FONT></div> <div> <B>The adorable little hats pictured below useses the following pattern.
