    This is where gauge …
    This is where gauge plays a role. You crochet at least a 4×4 inch swatch. The swatch will tell you how many stitches are made for that yarn and crochet hook. You will need to have a basic understanding of increasing to modify. This means you may have more stitches in a round than the original pattern to compensate for the smaller yarn or smaller crochet hook.

    I used a 5MM aluminum crochet hook so that will explain why you hat came out small.

    With some modification. You would not do as many rounds with increases and modify the hat size for a premie.

    You would need to add 2 increases evenly on your new round for the cap to increase. You can try 1 single in each of the next 3 and the two in the same stitch.

    The hat would be …
    The hat would be made for the size of their head. I have used a size H hook for a 15″ hat and a size I hook for an 18″ hat. You could try using a size J hook and possible come up with something to fit their head. You will need to crochet additional rounds for a longer length.

    Using a different yarn will result in a different size. Most likely you could have a different size anyway with your crochet style and tension.

    It will depend on the size of the head of the 1 year old. I recently crochet this pattern with a size I/5.5mm crochet hook, 4 ply yarn and made a cap that would fit an 18″ head.

    This one will fit a 6 month old. If you use a larger hook like an I or J size hook, the cap will fit a larger head.
