Crocheted beanie with a mosaic stitch pattern and fluffy furry pompom
Hello My Crochet Friends!
Today I have a tutorial for you on a crocheted beanie with a beautiful mosaic pattern. I really like mosaic patterns and I also enjoy creating and drawing them, choosing colors that match and are also contrasting so the pattern stands out nicely.
Mosaic pattern is fun! Come and join me in crocheting rows of single and double crochet stitches and enjoy how the mosaic gradually appears.
This mosaic has several horizontal rows and a diamond pattern between them, which is quite easy and quick to remember. If you are starting with mosaic, I believe this pattern will be easy for you.
I chose Omega Milk Cotton yarn, it is an amazingly soft, pleasant acrylic yarn - you can choose from many amazing colors and there are also many multicolor skeins available.
Mosaic crochet always uses two yarns - a main color and a contrasting color. The color choices are up to you! It's an easy way to create a unique design. I went with a bright white and a colorful multi that ranges from pink to anthracite - it was the perfect combo for this mosaic pattern.
This crocheted beanie is light, soft, and warm - perfect for winter, spring, and fall. The pattern is sized for women, but it's easy to adjust for men and children.
This beanie pattern is super easy - no complicated shaping required! We'll start with a stretchy ribbed brim and then work in rounds from the bottom up.
I've chosen a simple mosaic stitch that's easy to learn and looks great. You can customize the height by adjusting the number of rows above and below the diamond design.

Crocheting this hat requires a bit more patience, you need to learn mosaic crochet and the pattern. But as soon as you crochet a few stitches, the pattern repeats and then it goes one two.

PATTERN NOTES
1) The pattern below is for adult women medium size can be easily adapted to a smaller size or bigger size just by reducing or increasing the numbers of stitches and as well as less or more numbers of rows. Remember that when making bigger hat size, you will need more yarn.
Adult Woman Medium Size:
Head measurement: 22 inch / 55 cm
Hat Length: 9 / 23 cm
Hat circumference is 18 inch / 46 cm
*Measurements are taken from the garment lying flat, before the yarn has stretched out/dropped.
2) The HAT is crocheted in rounds, from the bottom to the top, using amazing MOSAIC pattern

3) This HAT is worked up as a one piece, starting with a border on the bottom of the HAT and finish on the top of the HAT.
4) To finish the HAT, you’ll join together the shorter sides to form a tube. After that, gather the opening - one end of the tube is gathered to create the Beanie shape.
3) A Ch 1 at beg of the row DOESN'T count as stitch
SIZE
The pattern is easy to adjust to fit different head sizes from Toddler to Adult sizes
I’ll show you a hat size chart and a simple formula to follow for a perfect fit each and every time.
Crochet Hat Size Chart
Wondering what size hat to make? To correctly size a crochet hat, you’ll want to make a Hat that’s just a bit smaller than your head size. This way, when the hat stretches, it will fit your head perfectly.
To find your perfect size, use a tape measure to measure the widest part of your head. This will give you your head circumference measurement.
Then, subtract about 2-4 inches from this to get the finished hat size measurement. Since this stitch pattern is very stretchy, I find that 4 inches of negative ease gives me a nice fit.
My example
For example, my head measurement is 22 inch, which puts me in the Adult Medium size. After I subtract 4 inches of negative ease, I know I want a make the circumference of the hat 18 inch.
To make my beanie, I crocheted as many rows as it took to reach a finished hat size of 18 inch, which turned out to be 65 rows plus 1 seaming row.
To make a well-fitting hat, crochet as many rows as you need to reach the appropriate hat length measurement.
And then, crochet as many rows as you need to reach the appropriate hat circumference measurement.

PATTERN - NOTES
The Hat is decreasing from the bottom to the top, so the top is narrower than the center of the hat. This will come in handy when it’s time to gather the opening and finish the hat.
The mosaic crochet hat is worked from the bottom up. The bottom border is worked in rows and then joined. The mosaic pattern is worked on the border in rounds.
The top of the hat is decreased and gathered to close the top of hat.
How to reach a Crochet Mosaic Chart:
Crocheted beanie Omega with mosaic chart.pdf
The chart is read from right to left for each round.
Rounds are worked in alternating colors, as indicated on the right column.
The entire round is worked in the color stated.
Ignore the colors displayed in each box; this shows how the pattern will look; you will not change color throughout a round.
A blank box indicates you will work a sc in the BLO.
A box marked with an X indicates working a drop-down double crochet.
When working mosaic crochet in the round, don’t cut colors. Drop off the color at the end of the round and pick up new color as you go. Color is changed at the sl st join.
Always tighten yarn tails when joining at the end of each round; this will keep the join invisible.

WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS - WOMEN'S SIZE
I would recommend you to take your measurement at first.
I took the measurements of my head, which is 22 inch / 55 cm.
I need beanie with these measurements:
Foundation chain: 12 cm / 4.7 inch
Hat circumference is 18 inch / 46 cm
Note: A fabric measuring tape is useful here, since it’s more flexible than a ruler.
Crochet Hook 4.5 mm
Make a slip knot and chain foundation chain: 17 chains
R1: ch1, 1 sc in the second chain from your hook, 1 sc in each st till end of row. Turn (17 st)
R2: ch1, 1 sc in each st BLO, turn (17 st)
R3 – R72: Repeat rows R2 until you reach your measurement.
Join the side with a slip stitch, fold the rectangle in half, bring the short sides together and join sides with slip stitches. Make 17 slip stitches.
Turn your work on the right side.
R1 - R23: MOSAIC PATTERN
Color A
Foundation row R1: 1 sc in each st around (65 stitches)
Single crochet in each stitch around. For the mosaic pattern, we will need a number of stitches divisible by 5. In this first row, please adjust the number of stitches. I end up with 65, so I will have 13 repetitions of the mosaic pattern.
Crochet Hook 4.5 mm
DECREASING TOP OF THE HAT:
Work in spiral rounds, don't close the round with a slip stitch.
Color B
R18: *1sc in next 11 st, sc2tog*, repeat from * to * till end of round (60 st)

Optional: If you would like the hat to be a little longer, you can add rows of single crochet: 1 sc in each st around between the decrease rows.
ALL SIZES FINISHING INSTRUCTIONS:
Gather the top of the hat.
Pull the yarn tail to gather the top edge of the hat, and pull it closed. You can knot the yarn tail to secure it. Cut the yarn, weave in the ends.
Lay your hat out and smooth down.
We will add a pompom to the top of the hat.
You can attach the pompom to the beanie by sewing a button to the inside of the hat and attaching the pompom to the button with an elastic band.
Do you like pompoms? I chose bright pink and white so that it would match nicely with the beautiful colors on the beanie.
