PATTERN NOTES
This Hat is worked in the round from the bottom up in joined rounds using the overlay mosaic crochet technique. The colorwork design is created by working back loop single crochet stitches on working rnds and front loop double crochet stitches 2 rounds below. You will never change colors within a round. Join all rounds with a slip stitch. To change colors at the end of each round, drop the unused color to the inside of the Hat, and pick up the working color at the pull through of the joining slip stitch. Alternate between main color and contrast color every round as shown in the color chart.
