Sewing Info & Tips


Materials:

  •  Store bought hair elastic
  •  Knit fabric - 1/4 yd each of two contrasting colors (this is enough for 2 scrunchies)
  •  Pinking shears (or rotary cutter w/ pinking blade and cutting mat)

1) Cut 20 strips measuring 3/4"wide x 6 ½" long from each color of fabric for a total of 40 strips.

2) Alternating between color A and color B, knot the strips onto the store bought elastic using a double knot.

These scrunchies are quick and simple to make.



To make the cutting process easier and quicker consider using a rotary cutter with a pinking blade and a cutting mat.
