How to sew a hair scrunchie - in DL

[SewManyPatterns]

Awesome, we go through these like disposables around here, alwasy losing them...it'll be nice to use up scraps instead of re-buying them every time I go to the store!

Wow. You are the first person that makes Scrunchies like I do.

I do a few things differently though. I use cotton fabric cut 4 to 4.5 inches wide, 2.5 to 3 inches if I am doing them for a small child. The length is 1/2 of the width of my piece of fabric (22" ?) or 1/3 the width for a small child. I think I cut my elastic about 7 inches if I remember right. Not sure of the length for a child.

When threading the elastic through I pin the elastic to the outside of the Scrunchie so I don't accidently pull it all the way through and have to thread it again.
