CO 68 STS, PM, join in the round
Round 1: *K1, P1*

Next round: *K2, K2TOG, SM*
Next round: *K1, K2TOG, SM*
Next round: *K2TOG, remove stitch marker*
End:
Without binding-off, cut the yarn leaving a 10” (25cm) tail, pull it through the remaining STS, push through the top hole to the inside and then weave in the ends.
Block:
To block this hat I use a saucer. Like a teacup and saucer. ;) I put it inside the hat, so the bottom “swirl” is in the center of the saucer and the saucer is bulging outward. Spritz it with some water, pat dry with a clean towel and let it dry overnight.
