This is crocheted top-down in a worsted weight yarn. It is oversized to be slouchy at one point, and then it’s brought in to get snug around the head. You can try it on at this point, and if it feels like it is about to be too small, you can use a larger hook to finish.

It takes 2 balls of Noro Silk Garden, or one skein of Malabrigo Washted - all in all around 200 yards.
