Using formula for hat sizes given in official P*ssyhat page, as well as a few basic beanies on Ravelry (Kitkat hat, etc.) Also making some earless beanies for those who do not want tomfoolery but do want the flag colors. Here’s some patterns: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/mens-reversible-knit-look-beanie (earless beanie, really clean design for crochet) http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/agas (Any Gauge, Any Size) http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/basic-crochet-ribbed-hat Classic crochet watch cap, this is the first hat I learned.  For a kitty hat, leave off the crown shaping and sew the top flat.
