The Rigi 1 hat is currently in test knitting. Let me know if you want to be part of the test knit - not all sizes are covered at the moment: https://forms.gle/8Zy23QXDd6TMUNcX9 The pattern is availabe in German and English and has been tech edited.

The Rigi 1 Hat is worked from the bottom up, starting directly with the broad rib pattern (Rigi 1 because there is 1 layer of fabric over your ears) of 16 radial rib segments of knit and purl stitches.

The decreases translate the logic of round-yoke sweaters into a hat construction.

The hat is knitted bottom-up on a short (40 cm) circular needle. For the crown shaping, switch to double-pointed needles or to a long circular needle for working with the Magic Loop method.
