Materials You Will Need

• Size H-5.00mm Crochet Hook
• Yarn Needle
• Scissors

Notes

• Use a smaller hook to make this smaller.
• Use a bigger hook to make this bigger.
• This is written in US terms.
• This took about 4 hours to make, but I did not work on it continuously.
• This pattern is for leg warmers that measure: 10 inch ankle, up to 18 inch calf, and they are 13 inches long. They will fit most adults.

Pattern

Make a slip knot and add the loop to your hook.

Insert hook into the center opening of the hair tie and wrap your working yarn around the band. Slip stitch to attach your yarn.

Round 1: HDC 48 sts working AROUND the hair tie, Sl st to first st to close round, scoot the stitches around to cover the whole band.

Round 2: Ch 2 (does not count as anything), [2DC in next st, DC in next 2 sts] 16 times, sl st to first DC. Fasten off, weave in all ends.

This creates a ruffle and a fabulous scrunchie look!
