  Step 1

  You will need:

  1 x baby sock (suitable for a 1-2 year old)
  Yarn for the pom pom
  Needle & Matching thread
  A fork
  Scissors

• 

  Step 2

  Take your sock and turn it inside out. Cut from above the ankle band to the curve of the sock as shown.

• 

  Step 3

  Stitch a seam, by hand or machine, straight down the cut area. Snip the top of the point off.

• 

  Step 4

  Turn the sock the right way out, creating a point at the top of your little hat.

• 

  Step 5

  Cut a piece of yarn approx. 20cm/8in long and set aside (this will be used to tie up your pom pom).Take your fork and begin to wrap the yarn around and around the prongs as shown.

• 

  Step 6

  Pull your cut piece of yarn through the centre of the fork as shown. Pull firmly and tie a knot. Ease your yarn off the fork and wrap the cut yarn around the bundle again, pulling to make it as tight as possible. Tie another knot.

• 

  Step 7

  Take scissors and cut the loops of the yarn on either side of your pom pom.

• 

  Step 8

  Trim until you’re happy the pom pom is rounded and fluffy.

• 

  Step 9

  Don’t be afraid to really trim!

• 

  Step 10

  Using needle and thread, stitch the pom pom to the tip of your hat.

• 

  Step 11

  You're all done! You can use bigger size socks for bigger hats and it's perfect to go on top of chocolate easter eggs too.
