Step-by-step Pattern

Round 1:

Place a slip knot on your hook.
Pick up the elastic hair band and make 45 single crochet stitches around it.
There's no strict number of stitches required as long as they support the elastic.
Continue until the elastic is covered with stitches.

Round 2:

Join the round with a slip stitch.
Chain four.
Working into back loops only, slip stitch into the next stitch.
Chain four, then slip the stitch into the back loop of the next stitch.
Repeat the pattern of chaining four and slip stitching into the back loops around the elastic.

Rnd 3:

Slip stitch into the next space (created by chain 4 in the previous round).
Chain four, then make a single crochet into the next space.
Repeat the chain four and single crochet in each space around the ring.
Your scrunchie should start to bunch up.
To close the round, chain four and slip stitch to the first chain.

Starting a New Round on the Unworked Front Loops:

Attach a new yarn end with a slip knot onto your hook.
Slip stitch into any front loops left unworked from earlier rounds.

Chain four.

Repeat of Round 2 (for the front loops):
Slip the stitch into the next front loop.
Chain four, and then slip stitch into the next front loop.
Repeat this around the scrunchie.

Repeat of Round 3 (for the front loops):

Slip stitch into the first space created by the chain of four loops.
Chain four and make a single crochet into the next space.
Continue with chain four and single crochet around the scrunchie until the end.
To finish, chain four and slip stitch to the first chain of the starting chain four.

Finishing Touches:

Cut the yarn, leaving a tail, and securely weave in all ends.
Applying a dab of clear nail polish to any visible knots or stitches is recommended to help secure them.
