Recently, I fell in love in making Pom Pom. At first, I bought the Pom-pom Maker
It is easy to make and fun, most importantly the possibility of coming up with various adorable things is unlimited and I started to crave making all kinds of things I could possible think of. Hair barrattes, Pumpkin, Spider, Butterfly, Elmo, Cookies Monster, Shaun The Sheep, Snowman etc…. the list never ends. This would be some great gift ideas for upcoming Christmas.
Before I can show all those cutie things I can make, I would like to share with you the basics of making a Pom Pom by using the Pom-pom Maker
Any how, if you need to do quite a lot of trimming in Pom Pom and I have a tip on how to trim it fast to other shapes and sizes, watch out my next post for the tip.
This is the clover pom pom maker, what about the normal, cheap and cheerful ones? how do we use those please… no one is showing us how.
Your website just created excitement within me. Makes me just want to try my hand at all your goodies.
I will have to hurry, seeing as I will soon be 76.
Keep up the great inspirations!

These are so cute, I use a lot yarn & sometimes have some left over, this would be a great ideal, I downloaded the pattern.
Here’s a tip when you tie the middle to make the knot nice and tight…when you cross your threads do it twice. This is called a Surgeons Knot…and it will hold the thread tight while you finish it off. See the easy :43 second video by mdhaworth on Youtube.

Hi Andrea,
You may try Clover Online but I am not sure if they deliver to Argentina.
i make these by hand, it seems alot fuller with this pom pom maker. i’m thinking of investing in one!
Happy to know this. To make it extremely full, wind more rounds but you will need to trim it for it to look rounder.
I like your sheepsss….. very much. They are so cute!!! how about the little Timmy?
I was thinking of making the little Timmy too, it is still in my list… will make it one day 🙂
Great demo, it looks like it works so well! What a fun thing to have around if you have cats. =) Thanks for this, I’ll be linking.

I learnt how to do this pom-pom from my late auntie. She made them to put on those knitted baby socks. Didn’t know the the market has a new widget to do this now. Cool!
