Scrunchies are back in a big way, and now you can knit or crochet your very own! Hair accessories and fiber arts are a natural combo; every creator knows there’s nothing more annoying than trying to finish a complicated project with hair falling all over your face (or accidentally weaved straight into the item--don’t worry, we won’t tell). Knit Collage’s Super Scrunchie pattern will make that frustration a thing of the past, and have you back to hair-free knitting in no time. As a bonus, they make a great, quickly-knit gift!
