Misti Alpaca hat

Used less than one skein of Misti Baby Alpaca chunky yarn!  I suppose this counts as my first “design” if something so simple can count as a design.  I just cast on 58 (I think it was too much though, next time I’ll try 50 I think) and then did about 1.5 inches in 1×1 rib stitch, then stockinette (knit around) till it measured 6″ (again, think this was too much – 5.5″ would be better) and then started decreasing, k9, k2tog, around, then k8, k2tog, around, till it was all k2tog and then I finished it off!
