Pompom making

Aunty Meg and Uncle Patrick gave me a box to make pompoms, so I thought I would make them to go with the woven square.

Here is how you make it.  You will need... lots of wool, a pompom maker and scissors.

Start with winding some wool around two of the pompom makers.  Like this....


Then do the same to the other side.  Then join them together and cut around one then cut around the other.


Tie together with some wool like this, take the pompom maker off and trim the ends.



Now you have your very own beautiful puffy pompom.  And you can make as many pompoms and woven squares as you like.  I made a mobile out of mine which I am going to hang in my room for decoration.  Here is a picture of it.
