Is this the exact pattern that you have been using to sell yours for Little Shop Joy?
YES – this is the exact same pattern that I use to this day. No changes have been made. You guys literally have access to a super loved pattern that has been used over and over and over to create thousands of products.
Why are you sharing your best selling pattern with us?
I truly believe that sharing is caring and there’s no need to gatekeep this. It is a really fun pattern to create and I’m sooo happy to be able to share it with y’all. I am soo proud of this pattern because I created it myself. It took a few weeks of creating and testing numerous bandana sizes before creating this one. This is truly my baby – a really big piece of my heart- and I’m sharing it with you. I really really hope you guys love them.
Is this beginner friendly?
Most definitely! If you can sew straight lines, you can create this!!! It’s a bunch of straight lines! (And if you can’t, get yourself a sewing guard to help you create straight lines). You can easily create a couple in 30 mins!
How to do I use this pattern?
Select the bandana size that you need, cut your fabric and scrunchie piece (don’t forget your elastic!) and read the step by step instructions and or follow my Youtube tutorial!
How much elastic do I need to create a Scrunchie Bandana?
The amount of elastic needed varies – it depends on the bandana size! All elastic measurements are included in this pattern in the instructions section!
What kind of elastic do I need to create this bandanas?
I use two different elastics for my Scrunchie Bandanas! I use this one for bandanas size XS-Medium and for my L and XL bandanas, I use this one. You can use one size elastic for all your Scrunchie Bandanas but I noticed that the wider elastic work better for the larger bandanas – it allows a tighter snug.
How do I put this bandana pattern together?
I created this Youtube tutorial to show you exactly how to put it together and how to use this pattern to create your own scrunchie bandanas.
What is a PDF Pattern?
A PDF Pattern is a pattern in pdf form. It allows you to print your patterns immediately after purchase. With PDF Patterns, you can print and sew the same day!
Help! I can’t open my pdf file!
I’m soo sorry you have problems opening it! This pdf file must be opened on your computer or Ipad! If you have Chrome, click on the pdf file and it will open it there. If you do not have Chrome, download Acrobat Reader. It is totally FREE and it will allow you to open and print this pdf file!
Do I need a printer for this pattern?
Yes! There is no physical pattern with this purchase. This pattern needs to be printed in order to use it! If you don’t have a printer, send it to a friend, head to the library, your local print shop or office supply store like Office Depot! If all fails, email me, I’m sure we can figure something out! 🙂
What kind of fabric should I use to make a Scrunchie Bandana?
You can use just about any kind of fabric! I recommend 100% cotton because it’s better for our planet, Earth but youuuu can make a bandana using almost any kind of fabric. I have even used OUTDOOR fabric – you know the kind that is on patio chairs! They made super STURDY bandanas but it does cost more per yard!
Do you have a size chart/ guide for these bandanas?
Yes! The XS can fit necks up to 9 in, small is 12 inch, medium is 16 inch, large is 19 inch and xl is 24inch. When I say it fits up to, that means that a fur baby can comfortably fit up to the inches of the size. For example, Rilee’s (my fur baby) neck was 14 inches so I always created a medium for her.
What kind of sewing machine do you use?
I use a Singer heavy duty sewing machine! It is the best one ever! I have been through 4 sewing machines in 6 months until I found this one! It can handle all my sewing needles from creating Scrunchie Bandanas to mending my little people’s clothes!
How do I access and download this pattern?
After purchase, it will instantly be available! There will be a box that says ‘DOWNLOAD SCRUNCHIE BANDANA PATTERN‘ and it will also be sent to your email.

I got you babe! Just send me an email to littleshopjoy@yahoo.com with your order number for fast help! I check my email a few times a day so I will send it to you as soon as possible!
Can I sell the finished scrunchie bandanas?
Yessssss, love! I highly recommend that you do especially if you have! These bandanas have been called ‘gamechangers’ by my customers because they are one of a kind and unlike the traditional bandanas that are sold in other pet shops. They were the best selling bandana in my handmade shop and you will make a killing on them if you advertise and market correctly! You got this. Create a few – and add some videos to Instagram, TikTok and Pinterest of your scrunchie bandana patterns in use!
What price should I set for the Scrunchie Bandanas?
It’s totally up to you, babe! I was selling mine for about $20 and $25 for customized (adding their name or another message with vinyl) ones! You can easily charge $15 or more for each one – if you are using exclusive fabrics, you can sell it for more! I know that if people love you, your quality and your brand, they will gladly pay whatever price you set. Don’t price them too low though because it does take time to make them and your time is valuable af. Time is money.
