Learn to Crochet this Women's Peaked Hat
Crochet this hat called the Women's Peaked Hat. It's a vintage design with a flair to the brim using a button to fold up the brim on the sides.
This pattern has a unique and fun easy stitch and will challenge you as well. It's a great project for something stylish for yourself or even something for charity giving.
The suggested yarn is Patons Canadiana.
This hat can end up being too small if your tension is tight. I have a solution for you though.

Increasing the Size – NOT IN PATTERN
Some crocheters are experiencing a sizing issue. If your hat is appearing too small by the time you finish round 8. I am going to give you two additional rounds to follow to increase the diameter of the hat by 2″.
My advice will put 4 DC’s between each spoke instead of just 3. It will make a significant difference.
ROUND 9 – Ch 2, *1 dcfp around next dcfp. 1 DC into the next 3 dc, 1 dcfp, 2 dc into next dc and then 1 dc into the next 2. Repeat from * AROUND
Round 10 – Ch 2, *1 dcfp around next dcfp. 2 DC into the next dc, 1 dc into the next 2 dc, 1 dcfp, 1 dc into next 4 dc. Repeat from * AROUND
Once you get this done…resume the pattern as normal starting at Round 9 as per the pattern.

I am confused. I finished row 14 (8in) The hat does fit but i have 76 sc stitches into the first row of the brim. Did i do something wrong how do i get back to 64 sc?

I asked the same question earlier but can't find the blog anymore to see if it was answered. I had 80 stitches after putting in those 2 rows but am now back to 64 after resuming the pattern. The hat is very small.

I have a large head and I found the original pattern without the extra rows was perfect for me. I think you should try again with a larger hook.
Chickee says
So if I do your 2 row increase I now have 4 dc in between post stitches... So where in row 10 do I put that DC that is supposed to be in the center stitch?
