This hat uses mosaic knitting to create the pattern. If you haven’t used mosaic knitting before it is the easiest way to add colorwork into a pattern - perfect for beginners who have gotten knit and purl down and want to add something a little more complex.

Mosaic knitting is easy because it only uses one color at a time so you don’t have to juggle two working yarns at the same time. The pattern includes instructions on how to do mosaic knitting and how to read a mosaic knitting chart.

You’ll want to gather around 150y of worsted weight yarn and as long as you’re comfortable with knitting in the round, knit/purl and slip stitches you’ll be ready to tackle this hat!
