Giacomo's Baby Hat

To design this hat I used the help of this great book. Besides ancient images of rugged Scottish fishermen covered head to toe in expertly knit Fair Isle gear, the book includes pages and pages of black and white traditional stitch patterns. I chose one, came up with a little border and a color scheme and here you go!  Enjoy! --Whitney

Hello!
Gorgeous hat .. I'd like to make one for a man .. how do I adjust to determine how much yarn I need? .. Also, if it's going to be worn skiing, is there a particular wool that is best?

Thanks a lot! Haley
