Hi. I love the look of this hat and would love to make it, but I can’t read the pattern? Could you please explain the brackets to me?

Whoops! I fixed it! Was supposed to be Stars, not brackets 🙂
The 2dc means to dc two times in the same stitch, then after that depends on the round.
You are increasing 5 stitches per round.

Should I slip join after each round? It sorta make sense to slip stitch at end of each round?

Oh! Yes! Yes you do! Shoot I will add that sorry!
