Looking for a color-work hat without all the hassle of fair-isle? Mosaic knitting is the answer! This hat features a simple mosaic motif that takes the struggle out of colorwork. Only one color is worked at a time; simply switch colors every two rows and carry them up the inside of the piece! Slip and knit stitches and watch the design come to life!

Skill Level: Adventurous Beginner, Intermediate (requires knowledge of knitting in the round, slipping stitches, K1tbl, K2tog and SSK).

Materials Needed:
◊  Two contrasting colors worsted weight yarn. Max 55 grams in main color and 25 grams in secondary color. Example is knit using Malabrigo Rios in colorways: Glitter and Sunset
◊  US size M: 5(6) / 3.75(4mm) // L: 6(7) / 4(4.5mm) 16 in. (40cm) circular needles or DPNs as well as a 32in.(80cm) or longer circular in US size 6 (7) if you choose to use magic loop method while decreasing.
◊  8 stitch markers (one in a contrasting color for beginning of round)
Tapestry needle
◊  Optional pom pom

This hat is designed to fit with slouch in it. Both sizes are unisex though I have found the medium to fit most women and the large to fit most men the best.
Due to the slouchy nature of the hat, gauge is not as important. The ribbed brim allows for much forgiveness in size range.
Blocking greatly improves the fit and look of this hat, and I highly recommend it!  Gently soak in room-temp water with some soap or wool wash, squeeze water out and shape over a head form/balloon/bowl to the finished size you want your hat to be.
