20 sc + 23 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] with B on smallest hook. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE.

| Birthday Baby Pocket Cardigan & Hat Reviewed by Davida McMullen on 2009-09-26 |
 |
| I did this hat in 65sts and it fit my 7 year old grandson. If I were to do it in 71 sts. it would fit my husband. This the simplest hat pattern I have ever seen in my life and can do it within an hour. Great for making at the dentist or waiting at music lessons or even in a traffic jam.
