Through The Window Beanie

"This fun crochet hat pattern uses the mosaic crochet technique. Don’t let it scare you! It’s comprised of simple single crochet stitches, chains and easy double crochets. While my favorite way to work this technique is with a variegated color underneath, and a solid coordinating color on top, it also looks great with both solid colors, and even looks neat all in one color – think white on white texture. I used Red Heart Super Saver for my beanies, but good alternatives are: Lion Brand’s Vanna’s Choice or Heartland, Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn, Red Heart’s Soft, Bernat’s Super Value and Premier Yarns Everyday Soft."
