 DOTTIE SCRUNCHIE

This quick to knit scrunchie is knit in the round with some simple stranded colourwork and then seamed up around a hair elastic. It was designed to match the Dottie Vest for dogs, so the polka dot pattern is identical to the one on the vest.

Linked video tutorials of the entire process are included to help you along the way.

Techniques:
-long tail cast on
-knitting in the round
-two colour stranded colourwork
-seaming

Sizing:
One size. You can make the scrunchie larger and have more ‘scrunch’ to it by casting on more stitches or continuing for more rounds by adding an extra row of dots.
