Let's get started!!!

‍

‍

Step one: Pull up one end of your pom pom maker and begin wrapping your yarn around the extended arm.

‍

‍

Step two: Once arm is full, place that arm closed and extend the opposite arm.

Step three: Wrap yarn around second arm until full, close arm. Trim working strand.

‍

‍

‍

‍

Step four: Cut along the indented center of the pom pom maker to create the pom’s fringe.

‍

‍

Step five: Using another piece of yarn, wrap around pom maker, into the indented center. Tie tightly to secure center of pom pom, leaving 6” tails (to tie onto hemp cord).
