Apparently scrunchies are back in. My daughters wear them in their hair, on their wrists, on their ankles, and on their water bottles. I knew the next thing I needed to design was a knitted scrunchies pattern.
The Super Cute Scrunchies Set was born! They are simple and fun and work up quickly. If you can knit in the round, you can knit these scrunchies, probably in an afternoon.

Special Technique
The Scrunchies
All of the scrunchies are worked in the round and seamed closed. Be sure to leave a long, long tail — longer than you think you’ll need! Otherwise, you may end up seaming with a different color.
Knitted Scrunchies Pattern: Stockinette Scrunchie
A simple, elegant stitch results in a simple, elegant scrunchie!
Setup
CO 60 sts. Join in the round, taking care not to twist.
Body
Knit all rounds until piece measures 2.5″ long (about 22 rounds).
Finishing
BO all sts, leaving a very long tail.
Place elastic on wrong side of work and fold fabric over it.
Using crochet hook, seam the ends together.
Knitted Scrunchies Pattern: Ribbed Scrunchie
2×2 ribbing enhances the scrunch!
Setup

Body

Finishing
BO all sts, leaving a very long tail.
Place elastic on wrong side of work and fold fabric over it.
Using crochet hook, seam the ends together.
Knitted Scrunchies Pattern: Seed Stitch Scrunchie
This texture looks particularly nice on straight hair!
Setup
CO 61 sts. Join in the round, taking care not to twist.
Body
1 – *k1, p1* end k1
2 – *p1, k1* end p1
Repeat these two rounds until piece measures about 2.5″ long (about 22 rounds).
Finishing
BO all sts, leaving a very long tail.
Place elastic on wrong side of work and fold fabric over it.
Using crochet hook, seam the ends together.
Knitted Scrunchies Pattern: Moss Stitch Scrunchie
An elongated version of seed stitch, moss stitch is a bit more interesting to work (and to look at).
Setup
CO 60 sts. Join in the round, taking care not to twist.
Body
1 and 2 – *k1, p1*
3 and 4 – *p1, k1*
Repeat these 4 rounds until piece measures 2.5″ long (about 24 rounds).
Finishing
BO all sts, leaving a very long tail.
Seaming
Place elastic on wrong side of work and fold fabric over it.
Using crochet hook, seam the ends together.
After seaming, turn the fabric around the elastic so that the seamed portion of the fabric is what makes contact with your hair. This hides the seam and gathers the fabric.
