I love the look of colorwork patterning, but I’m not always keen to work stranded Fair Isle. Mosaic Knitting is a fascinating “cheat” for colorwork: you only work one color at a time. It’s fun, easy, and requires no special skills at all!

If you aren’t confident about Fair Isle, or just want to try something different, this hat is an ideal project.

Pattern includes a tutorial on working Mosiac colorwork - as long you know how to knit in the round you’re good to go!

Pattern doesn’t use a full skein of the two colors, so it’s great for using up leftovers.
