How to Make Perfect Pom Poms
How to Make Perfect Pom Poms- a step by step tutorial
A quick glance at my Knitting Patterns will tell you I’m a big lover of Pom Poms! I’ve always used the cardboard disc method to make them but it was kind of a pain. The cardboard bends and I sometimes ended up with crooked or flimsy pom poms. I purchased this Clover Pom Pom Maker a few weeks ago and it’s been a game changer! The instruction diagram on the package isn’t helpful at all, so I wanted to post a tutorial clearly illustrating the steps. Follow this and you’ll get perfect poms every time!
How to Make Perfect Pom Poms
 |
| Bend the arms out. |
 |
| Starting at the inner edge, wrap your yarn. |
 |
| Keep wrapping the yarn until it is thick. |
 |
| Close the arm. |
 |
| Begin wrapping the yarn around the other arm. |
 |
| Close arm in when you are finished wrapping. |
 |
| Cut along the middle all around the circle. |
 |
| Cut a 10 inch long piece of yarn and tie it tightly in a double knot around the middle. |
 |
| Open the arms and pull the pieces apart to reveal your perfect pom pom! |
I've always tried to do this but i didn't knew this is the way.. i tried with the fork but failed 🙁
I am buying this immediately! I hate winding my yarn through flimsy cardboard, and this seems much, must easier!

I have the clover Pom Pom makers and I agree with you, the directions are not clear. Took me a bit to figure it out on my own. My mother in law bought me all three sizes, so now I’m well equipment for all sizes of Pom poms
