I refer to this chart A LOT! You’ll hear me mention it in videos; you’ll see it included in some of my patterns and I often refer to it when I’m working on a hat! The actual info in the chart came from a blog called Slugs on the Refrigerator but it’s not available in its original form. (Looks like the website was redesigned and the chart lost it’s formatting.) Just for convenience, I put it back into an easy-to-read table below.

| Age | Head Size | Hat Size | Hat Height | Flat Circle Diameter |
| 0-6 months | 13 – 15 inches | 12 -14 inches | 4.5 – 5 inches | 4 inches |
| 6-12 months | 16 – 19 inches | 14 – 18 inches | 5.5 inches | 4.5 inches |
| 1 – 3 Years | 18 – 21 inches | 17 – 20 inches | 6.5 inches | 5.5 inches |
| 4+ years | 20 – 22 inches | 19 – 21 inches | 7.5 inches | 6 inches |
| Women | 22 inches | 20 inches | 8.5 inches | 6.5 inches |
| Men | 23 inches | 21 inches | 9.5 inches | 6.75 inches |
NOTE: Flat Circle Diameter measurement is for top-down crochet construction.
