    • Is that 90 Centimeters? If you continue with the increase as the pattern shows, making more increase rounds, you can make the crown of the hat bigger and then come down on the sides. I have a basic beanie hat on my YouTube Channel that you can follow too. Good luck! I hope you are able to make this bigger. ~Nadia
