These complicated-looking patterns are created by working simple two-row stripes. On successive rows, stitches are worked into the rows below to create the intricate patterns. It's as easy as that!

There are useful patterns for seven hats in teens’, women's and men's sizes so you can showcase your new skills. No one needs to know how easy—and fun—these gorgeous hats are to make.

Mosaic Basics
This fascinating colorwork technique requires just one color per row and is created using simple crochet stitches. Chain-2 spaces are used as placeholders where stitches of the other color will be worked. In subsequent rows, double crochet stitches are used to cover those chain-2 spaces and add the appropriate color in the desired spot in the pattern.
Let's learn how to do mosaic colorwork while stitching the 3-in-1 mosaic pattern stitch used in the 3-in-1 Hat chapter.
Begin with the foundation rows. They’re worked once at the beginning of a project and are not repeated. The rows will each be the height of a single crochet stitch, so each one will have one chain at the beginning of the subsequent row to bring the yarn and hook up to the height required to work that row.
With gray, chain a multiple of 4.
Foundation row 1 (RS): Sc in 2nd ch from hook (see Photo 1) and in each ch across, turn.
Foundation row 2 is a wrong-side row.
Foundation row 2 (WS): Ch 1, sc in first sc (see Photo 2) and in each sc across (see Photo 3), change color to magenta in last st, turn.
To change color at the end of the row, work the last stitch to the last yarn over (2 loops on the hook), drop gray, leaving a 6-inch tail, draw magenta through the 2 loops (see Photo 4). One loop of magenta is on the hook and now you're ready to begin the next row.
