While it has a netting and can be crocheted or knitted just like Starbella®, we've hand chained it to make three beautiful winter scarves.

Everyday Neon Stripe Hat
Yesterday we introduced the Everyday Neon Strip Scarf. Today we're going to make the matching hat. This
hat looks great when you contrast extra bright colors with neutrals. It
is a perfect ensemble when you wear it with the matching scarf. Just like the scarf, the hat is done in Premier® Yarns Everyday Soft Worsted. This 100% acrylic yarn is machine washable and dryable so it is very easy care. This hat is made by working the brim first, then joining it in the round
to make the top of the hat. It is then topped off with a pom-pom.

This crochet scarf is sure to keep you warm and toasty all winter long, especially if you wear it with the matching hat.
