Calling all Barbies and Kens! Fashionista is ready for any outfit. It can be worn many different ways: a headband, scarf, belt, or even an ascot! Beads add a bit of sparkle and flair to an otherwise simple reverse stockinette scarf. Double knit edging stabilizes the edges and adds a clean finish. Be any Barbie or Ken you want to be with a stashed fingering weight yarn. You can add this fun accessory to any of Ken or Barbie’s outfits. Ken is ready to chop wood, lead a hike, see his patients, knit, ride his Vespa, stroll along the beach (with Barbie of course!), and dance the night away at Barbie’s Dreamhouse.
