This is very handy if you need to make a few small pom poms!!

It works very well! We tried it!

You need a fork and some wool to get started!

1. Wrap your wool around the fork – try wrap it in the middle of the prongs

We wrapped our wool around the fork about 30 times (30 times around).

 

Then tie a little wool – in the centre prong – around the wrapped wool. Tie it as tight as you can as this is what holds the pom pom together!

Slide it off the fork carefully, cut both sides.

Fluff it out and there you go, a perfect little pom pom, made on a fork!

  • Loving this idea! Havent seen this done before…when I was younger we use to make popm poms at school but using to piece of cardboard.


    • Yes, my Grandma taught me how to do them with cardboard too. They were stitched onto beanies. One batch, made from different colours had the short left over yarn left on them to tie them together and we made garlands.
