From the designer’s blog…

If you purchased a copy of The Bartek prior to February 20, 2013 there are some minor adjustments to the pattern. Everything else remains the same.

Changes are in bold:

Row 60: stitch count should be (90)

Row 62: P1, sl 1 rtfm,

After row 69, Cut tail and string through last 6 stitches.

03.10.2013 - I totally swatched (like a grown-up) for this hat, per the designer’s strong suggestion on the pattern page. I got gauge on a US7. Now the fun begins!
