The best thing about this technique is that is SO quick you can churn pom poms out in no time at all – no more cumbersome round disc. They can be used in art collages or anything else you can imagine up, like these fluffy yarn pet rocks. Instead of throwing out your pom pom trimmings store them in a plastic baggie and keep for future craft projects. Now it just needs a good trim which is the big secret of making a fluffy, round pom pom. It will come out looking very shaggy and a bit uneven. Use your sharp scissors to cut the looped ends. Slide it off the end, turn it over and tie even tighter on the opposite side. While the yarn is wrapped around your cardboard pom pom maker tie it tightly in the middle. The yellow yarn in the image directly below is 8 ply, the other two are thicker. You can see I’ve made three different sizes.
