Soft and fluffy... what's not to love?
Pom poms make a great addition to hats, scarves, bags and pretty much anything else! If you have any questions, leave a comment below and I'll help you out as best as I can :)

Step 1
Cut out two circles from thin cardboard. They must be the same size. Here I used a cup as the stencil for the main circle and a gluestick base for the inner circle. I suggest you make the cardboard a different colour from your pom pom, but it's not necessary. They usually look a lot nicer than mine, but I use the same ones a lot.

Step 8
When you're finished, it should look like this. You can't really tell in the photo, but there are still a lot of areas where you can see the cardboard through the wool. If you want a thinner pom pom, you can go ahead and move to step 9 now. However, I usually go over the entire frame a second time to make it extra fluffy.

Step 15
Here's another pom pom I made using much thicker wool. This one doesn't have a handle. Experiment with the size of your frames and use different colours of wool or different materials and see what you can come up with! I'd love to see what you make. Post your variations below and I'll post my favourites on my blog :)
