11 Fun Knitted Scrunchies
Knitted scrunchies are really trendy right now, and I must admit that I really enjoy coming back to the 90s because most of the fashion back there was really comfy, fun, and colorful.
Scrunchies are one of my favorite projects to knit because they are so fast and easy to do (and I can use any leftover yarn!). This knit scrunchie is not only comfy but also very delicate and friendly to your hair – they won’t do any damage like some plastic ones do. Moreover, you can easily wash them in your washing machine or by hand, and they will last you literally forever! Above all, I think they will make amazing little gifts!
