What Is Mosaic Crochet?

Mosaic crochet is a colorwork technique that uses slip stitches to create intricate patterns. Unlike other colorwork techniques, you only work with one color per round, working double crochet stitches into the front loop of the stitch 2 rows below to create geometric color joines from previous rows into the pattern.

For this project, the mosaic stitch pattern creates a geometric, textured look that’s both modern and classic, making it a perfect fit for fall accessories like the Autumn Breezes Hat.
