MWM|| Simple projects to close this year

Happy and blessed day dear and appreciated artisan friends. I sincerely hope you are well, enjoying a few days of family togetherness. On my part I tell you that I have had some very busy days, but also very happy, since I have been able to share with my family the Christmas festivities. As for crochet, I have been making very simple projects and trying to advance little by little the bigger projects.

Among the small projects I've been knitting are the classic hair scrunchies. This accessory never goes out of style and is quite useful, as well as pretty. Lately there have been several ways to crochet these scrunchies, I'd like to try each design, but for now I'm going to start with the more traditional design.

This is the most used pattern to knit this hair accessory. It consists of covering the rubber band with low stitches, you must knit enough stitches to cover the entire rubber band without showing any spaces when you stretch it.

Then in the second round, knit 3 to 4 high stitches in each low stitch of the previous round. This will form loops or ruffles and give the scrunchie a lot of volume.
Some people knit more than 2 rows, in my case I preferred to leave them that simple.

There is another way to give them volume, which is to knit "V" stitches in each row. I will try this pattern next time.

I am making these scrunchies to give them as gifts to my friends who usually visit during these dates and it is nice that they take a handmade souvenir with them.

I hope you continue having a good time, take care of yourselves and we will keep reading each other in this community.

Greetings and blessings.
