DIY Mini PomPoms DIY

Small pompons do not succeed with the conventional technique over two wrapped cardboard circles. A little trick helps: I simply use a fork.

The small pompoms are suitable for doll hats or as a bobble hat for eggs as well as for nursery garlands or drumsticks. You can make wreaths, coasters or entire carpets or throw the pompoms at weddings instead of rice on the bride and groom. First, a thread is inserted between the middle forks. With this thread, the mini drum is firmly tied after wrapping the fork.

With thin yarn (needle size 2-3) the Gable is wrapped with the wool about 100 times. For slightly thicker wool it is sufficient to wrap the fork with the wool 70 times. Then tighten the previously drawn thread over the wound completely and knot. The wound threads must really be lashed together as tight as possible, otherwise the individual wool threads will later slip out of the pompom. Then the sides are cut along the outer forks. Finally, cut off any overhanging threads and shape the bobble with scissors.

This is needed:

  • Wool
  • fork
  • scissors
