This Yoda beanie is designed for an adult male with a 24-inch head circumference. When laying this beanie flat, it measures 11 inches across and is just over 8.5 inches tall. If you need a different size you can add rounds or you can use your favorite beanie pattern and just use the Yoda ears from this pattern.  I also have a free 3-6 month size Yoda hat crochet pattern available.  This pattern is a custom fit for a family member. If you are not sure of what size you need, I would suggest checking out the size chart at the bottom of the post that I discovered on Crochet In Color.
