 as always thank you for your continued support and buying my patterns I try to keep the cost as low as possible 

I used just under 100g women's institute black yarn ( or Similar ARAN WEIGHT)

and a 5.00 hook 

I also use 12 small pieces of contrasting color yarn to mark my increases at the BRIM

TO crochet the basic bucket hat I would need to work out his measurements. 

The Top of the Bucke (this is your Measurement around the head = divide by 3.14.  

Round up to the nearest .5 of number 

So 

his measurement was 23 inches around (medium adult) 

I will divide this by 3.14 = 7.32  rounded up = 7.50 inches ( 7 and a half inches diameter across ) I rounded UP as I wanted a bit of give in the pattern. I have written the pattern for you for this size however IF you wish to upsize I have included a small guide on how to do this
