Hyacinth Scrunchie

This fun little hair accessory adds a playful touch to any ponytail. The stitches are cast on directly to the hair tie and worked in the round. A modified picot bind off leaves a textured edge that resembles a hyacinth flower when worn. This scrunchie is a great stash buster. Quick and easy, it makes a great handmade gift.
