Did seven repeats of the cable pattern, then began the decreases. Used 5mm dpns starting at row 1 of the decreases.

NOTE: DO NOT USE THE DECREASE SECTION IN THE PATTERN. IT MAKES A POINTY TOP. Or, make crown shorter.

After Row 5, begin decreasing every row:
Row 6: p1, K3, p1, K2, K2tog
Row 7: p1, K3, p1, K1, K2tog
Row 8: p1, RFC, p1, k2tog
Row 9: p1, k3, k2tog
Row 10: p1, k2, k2tog
Row 11: p1, k1, k2tog
Row 12: p1, k2tog
Row 13: k2tog

This is thanks to jewlgirl.

I modified this slightly to close the crown even quicker, as well as switching dpns again to 4.5mm at row 9.

Row 9: p1, k2tog, k1, k2tog
Row 10: k2tog
Row 11: k2tog
