    Of all the videos I've watched from you over the years, I can't believe I've never seen this! I love how you show this with a sewing machine and Hair Ties! I remember making scrunchies in the 90's in my little world they never died. I was lost with them, they were hard to find for a long time. And during my 20's-30's raising kids, i didn't have the tome or resources to make my own. But I love making them again and sharing them with my daughter's! Who both also has lots of long, thick hair! But lately, I've been hand sewing these around hair ties. And I love that you're using hair ties as well. I agree about the elastic strip ones, it doesn't hold our hair well. I love your tips for turning the fabrics. Ive been doing it the other way, pulling the right sides out over the seems and its much more different. I learned someone today!

    I used to make a ton of scrunchies. I use my serger to make them - no turning. Now I have promised to make some for a friends granddaughter and couldn't recall the steps it had been so long. Watching your video helps a lot. Thanks!

    I use to be a hairstylist and truly for fine hair scrunchies are the best. Regular ties break the hair over time. Just a lil h/d input. Love your videos Jess ❤️❤️❤️

  • @jimandmissylima9789
    @jimandmissylima9789 4 ปีที่แล้ว +50

    I make tons of scrunchies like this. I actually fold the raw edge in on the top right at the beginning so I don't have to fight with it at the end.

      That's resourceful. I sat around and wrote when I was a teenager, and as much as it might have paid off in life, kind of wish I had done something more useful. Maybe spent half that time knitting more or sewing. You're awesome. ❤️ (I'm 33 now.)

    This is great. I volunteer at a teen center and the girls asked me to make scrunchies. I was concerned that the elastic I used would not hold tight enough in their hair. I'll be making these! They want velvet ones. 😊

    This makes me so happy. My goddaughters don't wear scrunchies but I think would wear them if they were tighter (i.e., they like them, it sounds like, but they aren't tight enough, so they don't wear them). So I'm going to try making them a few using this method. Thanks so much!!!

    So I attempted my very first sewing project, a scrunchie. The last time I sewed was in middle school for home ec class. The pacing, your clear instructions and visuals were super helpful. The hardest part for me was turning the tube right side out. But after five minutes of struggling i did it! I was so excited, I put it in my hair and then on my wrist and a third of the stitches broke :(
    I'm not sure if it was due to my material or stitch length. I'm going to give it another go, hopefully it works

    • @OklaRoots
      @OklaRoots  5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

I did however use 3 1/4 instead of your suggested 3;1/2 inch width of fabric. It gets all twisted and weird and won’t go down, . Thank u Marie.

    When you close your seam, do you sew over the elastic too?

    Great tutorial. Easy to follow instructions. Is it even necessary to join the ends?

    • @OklaRoots
      @OklaRoots  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      You know, if you top stitch the ends separately so those raw edges don't work their way out and give it a good overlap, you would probably be OK without closing the ends.

    I have made scrunchies for 30 years, off and on. I make them on my serger. Cut your strip and sew the ends together, right sides together. Now, gather it all up and stick inside the the elastic (or size #64 rubberband). Match up the raw edges and start sewing on the serger. Yes, your server thread is on the outside, but you can either using matching or contrasting thread. Sew all around, then off, when you reach the starting place. Thread large eyed needle with the tail and weave it into the serged stitching. No turning! Honestly, the rubberband lasts long enough, they'll be tied of it before it gives way. Or use your elastic pony, but no need to sew over it. You can leave it with the serged edge on the outside, or rotate it to the center. FAST!!

      Nancy Ingram thank you so much for sharing this tip!! I just tried it and I love how they look with the serged edge, so pretty, and no turning, it’s so fast! 🙏🙌

    I love this. Thank you so much for sharing!!! Would you recommend polyester thread for scrunchies or would cotton work fine?
