Begin Pattern Brim—establish ribbing: CO on 84 sts with US5 (3.75 mm) needles and join for working in the round. PM at BOR. Work twisted rib (see “Special Stitches”) for 2". Body—Vice Versa pattern: PM between 28th and 29th sts and between 56th and 57th sts for pattern reps. Change to larger circular needles and work rnds 1-10 of Vice Versa pattern (see “Special Stitches” section). Rep Vice Versa pattern 2 more times. Crown decrease—Change to double pointed needles when you have too few stitches to work comfortably on circular needles Rnd 1: *K10, k2tog; rep fr * to end of rnd. (77 sts rem) Rnd 2: K. Rnd 3: *K9, k2tog; rep fr * to end of rnd. (70 sts rem) Rnd 4: K. Rnd 5: *K8, k2tog; rep fr * to end of rnd. (63 sts rem) Rnd 6: *K7, k2tog; rep fr * to end of rnd.
