- Fisherman's rib in the round:

Row 2: *k1, yo and slip the purl st*, repeat from * to *.

- Ribbing in the round:
*k1, p1*, repeat from * to *.
- Stockinette stitch in the round:
knit all rows.
Gauge 17 sts of fisherman's rib
Using the circular needle, cast on 96 sts and work 1 row of ribbing in the round: *k1, p1*, repeat from * to * to end of round. Begin the fisherman's rib in the round:
Round 1: *k1, yo and slip the purl st*, repeat from * to * to end of round.
Round 2: *k1, purl the next st together with the yarn over*, repeat from * to *. Keep repeating rows 1-2.
When the piece measures 24 cm and you have just worked row 2 of the fisherman's rib, switch to working stockinette st in the round and decrease 1 st on the first round = 95 sts.
When the stockinette stitch section measures 19 cm, begin the decreases:
1st decrease round: *k2tog, k3*, repeat from * to * to end of round = 76 sts. Knit two rounds.
2nd decrease round: *k2tog, k2*, repeat from * to * to end of round = 57 sts. Knit one round.
3rd decrease round: *k2tog, k1*, repeat from * to * to end of round = 38 sts.
4th decrease round: k2tog, repeat to end of round = 19 sts.
5th decrease round: k1, *k2tog*, repeat from * to * to end of round = 10 sts.
Break the yarn, pull it through the remaining stitches, and pull tightly to close the hole. Securely weave in the yarn ends on the WS.
Fold the brim twice.
