I am asked time and time again How do you crochet a women's simple hat that's easy for beginners?
For this particular crochet beanie-type hat is suitable for adults.
TO crochet this hat You will need to know how to :
Work in the round and slip stitch to join.
Double Crochet - Yarn over. Insert hook into the stitch where you want to place the dc stitch. Yarn over again. Pull through. Yarn over again. Pull through the first two of three loops on hook. Yarn over again. Pull through the remaining two loops on the hook.

If you are confident working out the increases for making larger or smaller, remember that using different sizes use different hooks, and thicker wool can help achieve your sizing

Rnd 17: I like to finish off with a smaller crochet stitch. I would work Half Double Crochet Around. But you can still finish with the Double Crochet stitch around (60 sts).
Fasten off and weave in ends.
