Round 2:

Chain 1. Make 2 DC in each stitch around, ending with 24 stitches. Join.

In Rounds 6-9:

Chain 1. Make half double crochets (HDC) in the third loop of each stitch around for four rounds. This adds a ribbed texture to the hat. Each round should have 60 stitches. Join at the end of each round.

Rounds 10-11:

Chain 1. Make DC in each stitch around for two rounds, maintaining 60 stitches. Join.

Rounds 12-13:

Chain 1. Work the crossed double crochet stitch for two rounds. To create this stitch, skip a stitch, then make a DC in the next stitch. Go back and make a DC in the skipped stitch. This creates a cross. Repeat around, ending with 60 stitches. Join.
