I’m working on the men’s thick and quick hat by Gina Michele. The body of the hat is worked in K2 P2 rib (56 st in the round) and the crown as follows:

Shape crown (decreases):
(switch to dpns when necessary)
Round 1: Knit 2, Purl 2, Knit 2 together, Purl 2 across round.
Round 2: Knit 2, Purl 2, Knit 1, Purl 2 together across round.
Round 3: K2tog, Purl 2, Knit 1, Purl 1 across round.
Round 4: Knit 1, Purl 2 together, Knit 1, Purl 1 across round. (28 sts)
Round 5: Knit 2 together across round (14 sts)
Round 6: Knit 2 together across round (7 sts)

My question is with round 3 - it doesn’t seem like the math is mathing with regards to keeping the ribbing more or less intact. Do I go for it and trust the process?

TIA
