Top is designed to fit the contours of your head. Best of all, we give you the pattern for the top for free to download onto your own computer. No need to spend any time trying to decipher my measurements! The hat beanie body is an easy rectangle to cut with the width going around your head cut with the stretch of the fleece fabric.
