Notes

Simple pattern to follow and a good entry into mosaic knitting. I made the size medium but to make it a bit shorter I eliminated the last two repeats taking about 2” off.

Love the shadow effect this particular mosaic pattern made. The Haven yarn makes this hat supremely soft. I think this will be a favorite this winter.

This size fits a small adult head (me!) but my little grandson makes the perfect model!
