Pattern Instructions
*beginning chains do not count as a st
*there are 3 options below for 24, 12 or 6 roses on the scrunchie but you can add or subtract as many as desired. Each rose uses 2 stitches, so to reduce the number you can sl st into as many stitches in between each rose as desired to spread your roses out
*the tighter you crochet the better for this pattern, the roses will be more compact and more defined with tighter tension
2 Dozen Roses Scrunchie:
Begin: Join yarn around elastic hair elastic, ch 1. *See photo below diagram
Row 1: Sc 48 sts around elastic band, sl st to join. (48st) *you will need to stretch the band a little to get all 48 stitches on, see photos below
Row 2: Ch 7, 4hdc in 2nd ch from hook, 4hdc in next 5 chs, sl st to join in next st, *sl st in next st, ch 7, 4hdc in 2nd ch from hook, 4hdc in next 5 chs, sl st to join in next st* repeat 22 more times, fasten off. (24 roses) *see diagram for assistance
*To see example for a single rose that you will be making in row 2, see the last two photos in the photo grid
This is what all 2 Dozen (24 roses) will look like when completed. The tight little spirals give you the perfect miniature rose look!
If you would like to make it with 1 Dozen roses here are the steps....
1 Dozen Roses Scrunchie:
Begin: Join yarn around elastic hair elastic, ch 1.
Row 1: Sc 48 sts around elastic band, sl st to join. (48st) *you will need to stretch the band a little to get all 48 stitches on
Row 2: Ch 7, 4hdc in 2nd ch from hook, 4hdc in next 5 chs, sl st to join in next st, sl st next stitch, *ch 7, 4hdc in 2nd ch from hook, 4hdc in next 5 chs, sl st to join in next st, sl st in next st* repeat 10 more times, fasten off. (12 roses) *you will be leaving the rest of the stitches from row 1 unworked, see photo examples below
The 1 Dozen roses will all be on one side of the elastic, this makes it a little easier to wrap around the hair a couple times and still be able to spread the roses out a little. Perfect for thinner shorter hair!
If you need something even more petite for smaller children/toddlers then the half dozen rose option will be perfect for you! Here are the steps for the half dozen option...
Half Dozen Roses Scrunchie:
Begin: Join yarn around elastic hair elastic, ch 1.
Row 1: Sc 48 sts around elastic band, sl st to join. (48st) *you will need to stretch the band a little to get all 48 stitches on
Row 2: Ch 7, 4hdc in 2nd ch from hook, 4hdc in next 5 chs, sl st to join in next st, *sl st in next st, ch 7, 4hdc in 2nd ch from hook, 4hdc in next 5 chs, sl st to join in next st*, repeat 4 more times, fasten off. (6 roses) *you will be leaving the rest of the stitches from row 1 unworked, see photo below
After you have completed your scrunchie you may want to add a few embellishments! And if you are going to use this as a corsage or as decor then this will definitely give it that extra special touch! You can choose either a wider leave for a more plush look or a thinner leaf for a more dainty look. Here is how to add some leaves to your rose bouquets...
Wide Leaf Option 1: Green or color of choice - make as many as desired
Begin: Ch 7
Row 1: Sl st in 2nd ch from hook, hdc, 2dc, 2dc, hdc, sc, ch 2, sl st in 2nd ch, continue around to unworked side of beginning chain, sc, hdc, 2dc, 2dc, hdc, sl st, sl st to join, fasten off. Tie tails in a knot, use a needle to sew in between roses where desired, tie off and trim. (8st)
Slim Leaf Option 2: Green or color of choice - make as many as desired
Begin: Ch 7
Row 1: Sl st in 2nd ch from hook, hdc, 2dc, 2dc, hdc, sc, fasten off, tie tails in a knot, use a needle to sew in between roses where desired, tie off and trim. (8st)
Here is an example of how both the leaves look when sewn into the roses.
