Crochet in a spiral: Using half double crochet stitches, you continuously crochet around and around the elastic, building a tube-like form.
Keep crocheting past the meeting point: Even when the circle seems complete, keep crocheting. The more rounds you do, the scrunchies the final product will be.
Fasten and seam the ends: Once you’re happy with the scrunchies, secure your work (fasten off) and sew the ends of the tube together to create a closed loop.

Create ruffles (round 2): Chain 3 again. In the same stitch you chained from, make a double crochet. Then, in the next stitch, make two double crochets (2dc). In the very next stitch, make three double crochets (3dc).
Repeat the ruffle pattern: Continue crocheting around the elastic, following the repeat pattern: 2dc, 2dc, 3dc. Don’t worry if you can’t fit the entire repeat sequence before the round ends.

How To Crochet A Scrunchie For Beginners?

The look of your hairstyle increases a bit more with a perfect alignment of ponytail. But to keep the ponytail in its place, women hassle a lot. And the hassle ends here as we show you how to crochet a scrunchie perfectly.

Materials:

Yarn (DK or Worsted Weight): Yarn is basically a thread for crafting. It’s a long strand of fibers used for knitting, crocheting, sewing, etc. It’s like building blocks for making comfy sweaters and cool scarves.
Hair elastic: Hair elastic is a tiny rubber band that keeps your mane in check.
6.5 mm crochet hook: A crochet hook is a tiny cane for yarn. It’s a small hooked tool used to grab and loop yarn to create fabric.
A scissor: Scissors are basically a handheld cutting tool with two sharp blades. It contains a pair of metal jaws that slide past each other to snip things like paper, fabric, or hair.
A tapestry needle: A tapestry needle is a big, blunt needle for yarn. It helps sew stuff in crafts without snagging.

Note: Always use a bit larger crochet hook to prevent the scrunchie from turning out too stiff.

To crochet a scrunchie the steps are-

Gather The Materials and Choose Your Style
Secure the Chains Onto A Hair Elastic
Crocheting in A Circular Pattern
Complete the Scrunchie
Wash the Scrunchie (Optional).

Let’s describe in detail:

Step 1: Gather The Materials and Choose Your Style

Firstly, gather all the materials needed for the task. Choose from the free crochet scrunchie patterns we’ve mentioned below. Pick the one that you feel is easy to make and seems pretty good as well. Now, double-check check you have all the supplies you need to create the scrunchie. Once you choose your desired pattern and all the supplies are collected, move on to the next step

Step 2: Secure the Chains onto A Hair Elastic

Now we’ll create a temporary anchor for your crocheting using a hair elastic. Here’s how:

Form a Slip Knot: Make a slip knot with your yarn. It creates a secure loop on your crochet hook. You can find many tutorials online if you’re unfamiliar with the slip knot.
Chain the Foundation: With the slip knot in place on your hook, chain 16 stitches. These initial chains will form the base of your crocheted piece.
Thread the Hair Elastic: Now, grab your hair elastic and carefully slip the entire chain of 16 stitches through the loop of the elastic. Be gentle here to avoid snagging the yarn.
Secure the Loop (Optional): Here’s a trick to keep things tidy: While holding the chain in place on the elastic, you can use a slip stitch to create a small loop around the elastic itself. It’ll prevent the chain from twisting as you continue crocheting.

Simply insert your hook under both loops of the chain closest to the elastic, yarn over, and pull through both loops to create a new stitch. Repeat this slip stitch once or twice right next to the elastic to form a tiny loop that holds the chain in place.

Tip: Don’t make it too long. Keep it to the size of your hair tie you’re using.

Step 3: Crocheting In A Circular Pattern

Now that your foundation chain is secure on the hair elastic, it’s time to start building the body of your scrunchie! Here’s how:

Continuous Circle: You’ll be crocheting in a continuous spiral for this step. Do not join each round with a slip stitch or turn your work at the end.
Single Crochet Each Stitch: Using single crochet stitches, work one stitch into each chain around the loop you created on the hair elastic. Ensure that your stitches are evenly spaced.
Keep Going! Once you’ve completed a full round by crocheting a single crochet into every chain, don’t stop! Continue crocheting in this same manner, working one single crochet into each stitch of the previous round. This continuous crocheting will build up the fabric of your scrunchie.
Reaching Your Goal: The length of your scrunchie will determine how many rounds you crochet. There’s no set number here – it depends on your desired final size. A good rule of thumb is to keep crocheting until the tube of fabric feels like it can comfortably wrap around your hair a couple of times. You can try wrapping the fabric around your hair periodically to gauge how close you are to your ideal length.

Tip: When you reach your desired length, it’s better to err on the side of slightly too long than too short. You can always trim a bit later if needed, but adding length after the fact is more difficult.

Remember: You’re creating a tube shape in this step. The hair elastic will be hidden inside this tube when the scrunchie is complete.

Step 4: Complete the Scrunchie

We’re almost there! Now it’s time to tie up the loose ends (literally) and give your scrunchie its final flourish.

Snip and Save: Grab your scissors and carefully cut your yarn, leaving a generous tail of about 12 inches. This tail will weave in and secure the end of your crocheting.
Weaving the Weaver: Thread your yarn needle with the remaining 12-inch tail. Now use the needle to weave the tail through the stitches of your scrunchie, burying it within the crocheted fabric. It’ll hide the end of the yarn and create a clean finish.
Sewing the Ends: While weaving the yarn tail, focus on sewing the two ends of your crocheted tube together. Don’t leave any unwanted gaps. Carefully weave your needle and yarn through the corresponding stitches on both ends, essentially sewing them shut. Take care not to twist your work as you sew.
Hide and Seek Champion: Once you’ve knitted your way to the opposite side of the scrunchie, your yarn tail should be practically invisible. For good measure, you can thread the remaining bit of yarn through the scrunchie a couple more times to ensure it’s securely hidden.
Remove the Elastic Band: The trusty hair elastic has served as a temporary foundation for your scrunchie. Now that the crocheted part is secure, you can finally remove the elastic.
Trim the Triumphant Tail: Trim off any excess yarn tail that remains with a final snip of your scissors. That’s it. Your very own Crochet Scrunchie is complete now.

Step 5: Wash the Scrunchie (Optional)

While your scrunchie won’t necessarily require frequent washing, you can give it a refresh if you feel it needs it. Here’s how:

Handwashing is Key: Since scrunchies are delicate, do not use the washing machine. Instead, go for a gentle handwash. Fill a small bowl with warm water and add a few drops of mild soap or gentle shampoo.
Submerge and Swish: Gently sink your scrunchie in the soapy water and swish it around carefully. Avoid any harsh scrubbing or wringing, as this could damage the fabric.
Rinse Thoroughly: Once you’ve given it a light cleaning, thoroughly rinse the scrunchie with clean water to remove all soap residue. You can keep rinsing until the water runs clear.
Gently Remove Excess Water: Don’t wring out the scrunchie. Instead, press out some of the excess water with a clean towel.
Lay Flat to Dry: Find a clean towel or drying rack and lay the scrunchie flat to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as this could shrink or fade the fabric.

Tip: If your scrunchie has any stubborn stains, you can try treating them with a stain remover suitable for the fabric type before washing.

How Many Rounds Does A Crochet Scrunchie Need?

The stitching rounds you need for a scrunchie depend on the yarn weight. DK-weight yarn requires more rounds as it is thinner. In a DK-weight scrunchie, you should use around 100 to 110 rounds of yarn. Worsted-weight yarn, on the other hand, is thicker and requires less yarn. For a worsted-weight scrunchie, use anything between 65 to 75 rounds.

Yet, it sometimes gets influenced by the stretchiness of the elastic you use. A looser elastic might require more rounds of yarn to achieve a secure hold, while a tighter elastic might need slightly less. So, keep the stretchiness of your elastic in mind as you work on your scrunchie.

How To Adjust The Size Of A Crochet Scrunchies?

The starting chain count plays a key role in determining the final size of your scrunchie. By simply adjusting this number, you can create scrunchies in various sizes to suit your preference. For those who love a voluminous and chunky scrunchie, using a higher number of starting chains is the way to go.

Numerous chains provide more fabric to gather and create that satisfyingly full look. Conversely, if you prefer a more delicate and smaller scrunchie, you can get by with a much lower number of starting chains. This will result in a tighter gather and a sleeker overall size.

Things to Remember While Making Crochet Scrunchies

People always face problems with a stiff and bulky scrunchie. If your yarn is too big for the crochet hook, this problem appears. To avoid such problems, there are several things you must take into account while making crochet scrunchies:

Always go for the lighter-weight yarn for a flowery look.
Find a bigger crochet hook to prevent any stiffness in the scrunchie.
After finishing the stitch, you can snip the end open to avoid stiffness.
Stretch out the hair tie to make the tube cover up your entire hair tie. Otherwise, you may end up with a bizarre look at your scrunchie.
Try to crochet a few more inches to get plenty of scrunched.

Conclusion

From innovative style to the most basic pattern, we’ve provided with you all the Crochet Scrunchie designs possible. It’s usually a 5-minute job with basic materials to start with. If you’ve been paying attention to our instruction and the video tutorial, things must go like a breeze for you. Just take your trusty needle and sew the fabric as per the guidance. Till then, happy stitching.
