This hat has two rows worked in crossed double crochet. You skip a stitch, dc in the next stitch, and then work a dc back in the skipped stitch. You could do more rounds or even the whole hat in crossed double crochet, but I just wanted to add a couple of accent rounds for this one.
This hat is sized for 20"-22" heads. You can use this post to resize the pattern, but you will want to make sure your last increase round ends in an odd number (counting the beginning ch 2). To do this, simply add in an extra stitch on the last increase round.
