Scrunchie - Jester's Jingle

[redwaterlily]

I just removed my old website from Angelfire and thought I'd post one of my old pattern here (I made it up) so it isn't lost for those who MAY be interested

 

 

 

Jester's Jingle Scrunchie

 

 

 

Crochet Cotton Size 10

 

in bright yellow, green, blue and red - small amounts

 

size 8 crochet hook

 

size 10 crochet hook or needle

 

yellow hair elastic (i.e. Goody Article no. 06190),

 

6 jingle bells (Size 6 mm - i.e. Fibre Crafts article No. 5352)

 

 

 

WITH YELLOW

 

sl st onto the rubberband (preferably yellow as well), ch1, 60sc around the rubber band to cover it evenly - sl st to first sc = 60 sc

 

ch1, sc in same as beginning chain and each stitch around, fasten off, sew in ends = 60 sc

 

 

 

WITH RED

 

Attach red with sl st to any stitch

 

1) sc in same stitch as joining and in next 9 stitches, ch 1, turn = 10 stitches

 

2) sc in all 10 stitches from previous round, ch1, turn = 10 stitches

 

3) sc decrease over next two stitches, sc in next 6 stitches, sc decrease over next two, ch1, turn = 8 stitches

 

4) sc in all 8 stitches from previous round, ch1, turn = 8 stitches

 

5) sc decrease over next two stitches, sc in next 4 stitches, sc decrease over next two, ch1, turn = 6 stitches

 

6) sc in all 6 stitches from previous round, ch1, turn = 6 stitches

 

7) sc decrease over next two stitches, sc in next 2 stitches, sc decrease over next two, ch1, turn = 4 stitches

 

8) sc in all 4 stitches from previous round, ch1, turn = 4 stitches

 

9) (sc decrease over next two stitches) twice ch1, turn = 2 stitches

 

10) sc in both stitches from previous round, ch1, turn = 2 stitches

 

11) sc decrease over next two stitches, ch1, turn = 1 stitch

 

12) sc stitch from previous round, fasten off

 

 

 

Attach Blue to stitch immediately following the 10th red first row stitch - repeat rows 1 through 12

 

 

 

Attach Green to stitch immediately following the 10th first row blue stitch, repeat rows 1 through 12

 

 

 

Repeat around with all 3 colors. Sew in all ends.

 

 

 

WITH YELLOW

 

Thread all 6 bells onto yellow thread - I used a size 10 hook to go through the back of the bell to pull yellow through, a needle should work as well.

 

Attach yellow with sc down into first rnd between any two triangles. *Sc into side of each row of triangle to top (12 sc), 2 sc into top st of triangle, pull up bell, ch 1 (this secures the bell in place), 2 sc into same st, 12 sc into side of each row going down triangle, sc into row below and between triangles, rep from * around. - fasten off, sew in ends.

 

 

 

This Scrunchie looks best on thicker hair - only twist it once and fold all

How cute and original this is! I'm going to have to make one now. I'm glad it's good for thick hair, too. Some scrunchies seem to disappear in my big mass of hair.

I Love It its Great Thanks for the pattern listing thats very nice of you. I havent seen anything like it great job....

[RachelG]

I thought these patterns looked familiar! Would you mind telling me your old angelfire address to I can take care of those links on CPC? My link check tomorrow would catch it, but I'd like to do it sooner if possible. Thanks!

 

(Oh, cute scrunchie, BTW!)

[RachelG]

Never mind, I found it. (Must not be awake yet!) All I had to do was go to my database, do a search for jester, and it popped up the address.

Make sure you use a rubber band that is tight when you twist it ONCE - you really can't twist it more than that or it doesn't look right, because of the shape.

 

Let me know if you have trouble with the pattern!

[redwaterlily]

Would you mind telling me your old angelfire address to I can take care of those links on CPC?

 

Sure. It's was angelfire.com/md2/redlily (i believe LOL)

[RachelG]

Thanks...I found it earlier. It was just a matter of "sparing" five seconds to do a search in my database. I should have thought about it before posting!

[Tiggzie]

Dude, that's so cool! My nickname used to be Jess the Jester so you know I have to make myself one.

[GarnetMoon]

Ooooooh! I HAVE to make one of these for my daughter! She has tremendously thick hair from me, and red curls from my hubby, you can imagine how many hair pretties we break, err umm go through! This would be ab fab! Especially in her school colors! Thank you thank you so much for posting this!!!

Oh.....I've saved your pattern before when I was surfing for scrunchie patterns. Glad to know you posted it here so everyone here would see it. Great pattern! Thanks!

[Guest Crafterlady46]

I love it. I have long hair and wear unique hair stuff. Thanks for sharing!!

[Becks]

That ia soooooo cute!

I've got to make one!!!

They would even be cute around a dog's collar or for a jester baby outfit too.

 

Neat!

[sarahq]

My hair's too short for scrunchies, alas, but I'll definitely have to make one of these for my sister. Thanks so much for sharing this pattern!

Thanks for this pattern!!!! I will have to make up a BUNCH of these, cause I am doing a Mardi Gras theme family party this year. What a great way to make a useful napkin ring. Then the little girls can use them for their hair!!!

[mardar]

Thank you, I love this.

[Roli]

Oh I LOVE this! A few years ago, I bought my dog a jingle collar just like your scrunchie but it was made of fleece. Somehow it got lost. Now I can make him one in red and green for Christmas! Thank you so much for posting the pattern!

[moonspinners]
