Made up this pattern based heavily on two other caps I’ve recently knitted. Cast on 52 stitches, used easy 1x1 ribbing and then knit in the round until it fit my head snug like I wanted (no slouching here!) and alternating simple decrease rounds with knit rounds (k4, k2tog then k3, k2tog then k2, k2tog then k1, k2tog then finally k2tog to end of round leaving about 6 to 8 stitches on the needles). Easy peasy!
