The mosaic hat is knit from brim to crown. The pattern needs two skeins of DK yarn, one light and one dark colored. The pattern is very easy and uses only one color every two rows. You slip the stitch of the color that you are not using in the row to complete the pattern. 

The hat sizing will fit a toddler, child, teen and adult women and men. You may adjust hat height in the stockinette and brim sections of the hat to give the fit that you would like.
