For the seaming part, I will be referring to the base scrunchie and Tunisian crochet cord as seen below
Wrap cord around base scrunchie
Sl st into first stitch on base scrunchie
Align cord and base scrunchie
Sl st join the base scrunchie to the cord (work into top of stitch on the base scrunchie and the bottom of the stitch on the cord)
Leave a 6 in. tail and cut yarn and weave in all loose ends. Optional: use a glue gun to hot glue the ends for extra security.
Use as a bracelet or scrunchie. If used as a scrunchie, it’s best to use another hair tie first to secure hair and add this as a decorative hair piece.
