Materials needed:

2 sets of circular needles: 3.75mm and 4mm

For the Tension Swatch:
For the Hat Cast On and Rib Knitting.
Cast on 92 Stitches
I used a Cable Cast on but you can use any cast on that's not tight. Cast on 1 extra stitch
Pull your cast on equally over your circular needles and pop the extra stitch back onto the other needle and knit it together with the first cast on stitch. You will have the correct amount of stitches.
Row 1-20: Knit a 2x2 rib which is two knit stitches and then 2 purl stitches throughout the row.
Row 21-24 Knit 4 rows in stockinette which is plain knitting using the knit stitch.

Decreases
Reset the row counter.
Row 1: Mark the beginning of the row with a stitch marker and then evenly place further stitch markers as follows.
1 stitch marker every 31st stitch
Row 2: Decrease 1 stitch after each of the stitch markers by knitting two stitches together.
You should have 90 stitches on the needles.
Row 3: Replace all the previous stitch markers with the following:
1 stitch marker every 10th stitch.
Row 4: Decrease 1 stitch after each of the stitch markers by knitting two stitches together.
Continue to decrease at the stitch marker for every row until you have 1 stitch between each stitch marker. Cast off these stitches using a darning needle.
sew in the ends.
Voila your hat is done.
