How To Make Pom Poms

Things you'll need:

1. Cardboard
2. Scissors
3. Pen
4. Yarn
5. A Circle Shaped Item to Draw A Circle

Step 1.  Draw a circle around your circle shape onto the cardboard. Do this twice.

Should look something like this...

Step 2:  Cut the circle out using your scissors.

Step 3: Draw a smaller circle inside the middle of the larger circle

Step 4: Cut out the smaller circles. as well as a small segment as shown below.

Step 5: Start wrapping the yarn around BOTH circles you cut out earlier, place them on top of each other before wrapping the yarn

Should look similar to this below. You can wrap less or more round if you like. All personal preference. The more you wrap the thicker the pom pom.

Step 6: You now want to cut down the middle of the two cardboard pieces, this will cut the yarn and start forming the shape of the pom pom.

To understand this step a bit more... Place your scissors through the gap of the 2 pieces, like shown in the picture below and cut the yarn all the way to the end.

Should now look like this.

Step 7: While holding down the hole yarn and cardboards all together, you now need to tie it all together. For this you need to cut a piece of Yarn off ready, slot it around the whole circle, through the middle of the two cardboard pieces and pull tightly.

Step 8: Now your pom pom is ready! Just pop it off the cardboard and boom POM POM!!!
