Power Play Beanie Hat Mosaic

**FREE UNTIL JUNE 2, 2026 JUNE BUG PROMOTION** ***Once it goes up for sale, all proceeds will go to Autism Funding Research in BC, in honour of my grandson, Blake, who is nearly 14 and struggling with Level 2 Autism.*** Mosaic knitting is super-easy and satisfying, as you only knit one color per round, and slip the other. This pattern was developed by [Hyphenplus](/people/Hyphenplus) and adapted by yours truly for publication and testing, with credit given to Julie-Anne. It is an ingenious method of using Mosaic to achieve a smocked effect, with 3 colors. **Yarn:** although the pattern calls for worsted weight yarn, any yarn from fingering to bulky could be used with the appropriate needles in multiples of 10. Cast on multiple of 2 (1 x 1 rib) or 4 (2 x 2 rib) stitches and increase after the folded brim to a multiple of 10 stitches. **Sizing:** T, (S, M, L) to fit from 18" - 24" / 45 - 61 cm **Height:** 7.25, (8, 8.5, 9)" / 18, (20, 22, 23) cm Smaller sizes could be achieved with multiples of 10 sts (as noted above)
