You can make this scrunchie without a sewing machine by substituting hand sewing with a needle and thread in each step that calls for machine sewing.
In this tutorial, I’ll teach you how to sew a classic scrunchie. I’ll also show you how to add 3 different bow variations to your scrunchies.Fold the scrunchie piece in half lengthwise. Pin along the long edge to hold it in place for sewing. Now that the elastic is inside the tube, it’s time to sew the remaining opening closed. For a truly seamless finish, you can sew this opening by hand. Using a blind stitch, or an invisible ladder stitch, stitch the remaining opening closed. Thread the elastic into the casing, using a safety pin or an elastic threader. Stitch the ends of the elastic together with a small overlap (or just tie off a knot!) and then...
Place elastic around your wrist or cut as measurements above. Thread the elastic through the opening in the seam and tie off with a knot. Here’s what it looks like with pins all the way around. The hair tie is hidden inside the scrunchie. 6. Sew the open edge closed If you don’t have access to a printer, here are the measurements so you can draw your own: it’s 11 6/8″ (30cm) wide, 2 6/8″ (7cm) tall in the middle, and almost 4″ (10cm) tall at the highest point. 2. Fold the bow in half, sew it & leave a gap in the middle
The raw edge should be facing the “ugly” side of the fabric, not the “nice” side. If both sides look the same, then it doesn’t matter. I want you to have all the possible options to make your own perfect scrunchie for yourself, so I'm adding one more option. I just know that if you haven't found yours above, this one is very likely your go-to scrunchie version.
