Hat per Dave...

This is the hat I am making per instructions from Dave...I measured around my head = 21"; subtracted 2" = 19" From the crown to where I want the hat to end is 8".

Next I did a stitch gauge and found I was getting 5 stitches to the inch on a 5 needle. Multiplied 5 x 19 and cast on 90 (it was 95 - but wanted to keep it even) stitches. I am doing a K1P1 for 5 inches. Am at 3 right now. Once it gets to 5" I will start decreasing every 10th stitch on each round. Will post other photos as I get more done.
