By knowing the diameter then you can multiply that by pi (3.14) you would get the circumference of the beanie. Hope this helps. :) Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08948806662121958268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1066681531409638475.post-50329794727067595862012-11-02T21:58:53.091-07:002012-11-02T21:58:53.091-07:00I just love this hat.

Thanks and I'm glad you like the hat. :)<br />I personally like to use sc or hdc (half double crochet) in hats since I find it to be less holey and I figure it will be warmer than a dc hat that would be more holey.<br />I don't lined them but I seen this beanie over in Ravelry where someone lined the inside and it look so nice and warm that I was considering making a beanie for my son like that this next winter.<br />-JanetJanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08948806662121958268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1066681531409638475.post-50839767568567424512012-04-13T16:15:53.760-07:002012-04-13T16:15:53.760-07:00Hi,
