I purchased the new Red Heart Reflective Yarn to make a hat for my daughter. I asked her if she wanted it to be knit or crocheted, simple or with a design, and she chose a simple, double crochet beanie-style hat. I made it for her last night, and she loves it! I had to use a G or 4.00 mm hook for this to make the right gauge, as I usually use an I or 5.50 mm hook to make all my other crochet beanie-style hats.
I took a photo of it with a black background and used my flash so that you can see how it glows with the light. This is part of what I used my $100 winnings for from the giveaway. Thank you to the Crochet Community for the prize! By the way, that yarn is $6.97 a skein at Walmart, and it takes a whole skein to make a hat for my daughter who is 12 years old. So glad I was able to make it for her! :) The yarn is very thick, and she says most hats bother her forehead, but she loves this one because it doesn’t bother her and she said it is super warm!
