There wasn't a tutorial for this, it's just something I do. Many times when I'm turning a sweatshirt into a cardigan, and adding a contrasting fabric trim I want to add some buttons. So as I sew the front seam, I insert one of the elastic bands for your pony tail for each button I want to use. Why spend so much time crocheting a loop for a button, when you can buy them by the bag for a couple bucks? Pony tail elastic rocks for a lot of things!

Hi Sharon. It looks like the maker took the tutorial down for this particular how-to.

Where do I find the instructions for this?

I just use the elastic bands you buy at the store, for your pony tail. They come in a bunch of sizes and colors, and you get a lot for a couple dollars.
