My kids are very excited for the upcoming solar eclipse. My daughter has a solar eclipse scarf to wear, but wanted something else in case it’s too warm out for a scarf that day. We decided that a crochet solar eclipse scrunchie would be the perfect accessory.
This scrunchie is a very quick and easy project. It’s just a few rows crocheted around a hair tie. This makes it the perfect last minute solar eclipse accessory.
For this project I used a 6mm crochet hook and Big Twist Value yarn. You could substitute the yarn with any brand you have on hand.
