Shape crown as follows: Row 1 *K6, K2 tog repeat from * to end of row. 56sts Row 2 Knit Row 3 *K5 K2 tog repeat from * to end of row. 48sts Row 4 Knit Row 5 *K4 K2tog repeat from * to end of row. 40sts Row 6 Knit Continue decreasing in this manner until (K1,K2tog) has been completed and 16sts remain. Knit 1 row. Break yarn and thread through the remaining 16 sts. Make up: Sew the back seam ensuring that the fold-back of the brim is on the correct side.
