Mosaic Snowflake Hat

This pattern is for a crochet snowflake hat, made using overlay mosaic techniques.

This is a fairly simple pattern suitable for someone who is intermediate at crochet. Because the hat is worked in the round, there are no ends to worry about when we switch yarn colours which makes it a good beginner mosaic crochet project.

The pattern includes written, step-by-step instructions, charts with drop-down stitches marked with an X, a few illustrative photos. You can download the pattern in either US or UK crochet terminology.

I give some instructions for adjusting the sizing of the hat by increasing the brim/ circumference. The basic pattern produces a fairly slouchy hat style as the mosaic section gives a decent height to the hat which means it probably won’t make an ideal tight beanie or child’s hat. My hat (pictured) has a circumference of 20” and a height of 10” with the brim unfolded/ 8.5” folded.

Happy crocheting!
