Can I use a K hook? Does it make a difference?

BJ,
A larger hook will make the hat larger. Just how much and how different will depend on your unique crochet style.

This pattern is the BEST...in the last month I've made 5!! I've added stripes in the middle used multi colored yarn, you name it I've done it. Each and every time they look great!

This was the first pattern I was ever able to finish. I've made 2 so far in the last week. the first 1 i made i used a size8 vr4oshet hook and i ended up making a berrett, it looks really cute, thanks a lot!
