Does anyone have a knitting or crocheting pattern for a man's peaked hat? I don't mean a baseball cap I mean what I might call a bargeman's hat with a peak. I have tried shops and the internet but patterns there tend to be for ladies and I need a man's pattern because my man has a large head!
Try using the women's pattern with larger needles. Calculate for size.
Wth free registration, all of the yarn companies have websites with free patterns. I can't remember if it was lionbrand.com or bernat.com but one of them had the pattern for a peaked 'watchcap', bargemans hat, toboggan, whatever it might be called :-) if you can't find it, let me know and I'll look again until I find it, but search all the yarn mfg's pages and most have free patterns for registration. Just opt out of any mass mailings they offer.
I was able to find quite a few free patterns, both knitting and crochet, by "googling" watch cap patterns, or free crochet watch cap patterns... Good luck!

This looks like it might be big enough.
