Coral Reef Scrunchies
If you would like to read my thoughts on scrunchies go to the Scrunch it Up and Tie it Up Post.
Not having long hair, hair ties are not something that I use. Yet, the idea of a scrunch really appeals to me. As I started making them, they started to remind me of crocheted coral reefs, hence the name. The scrunchies have been tested by someone with long hair, and got an A+.
