( Here is how to make a hat from the bottom up: )
A word on sizes: infant heads are 16 inches around. Heads of children 1 to 6 years old are 18 inches around. By the time a child is 12, their head is at about adult size, 20 inches to 21 inches or so, more if they are tall. Generally speaking, adult females have heads of 21 inches, adult males of 22 inches. So if you can't try your starting on the person the hat is intended for, use those measurements for your starting chain. When in doubt, go a little large.
