Chunky will be fine, and I think one skein should be sufficient, but
it all depends on the yardage of the yarn and the loom you use. I
always find that about 150 yars of bulky weight makes a large adult
hat.

"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty
recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity:
but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on
their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible." T. E. Lawrence
