Gently fold the cardboard piece along the fold you made in the first step to remove it from the center of the yarn loops, pinching your fingers through the fabric loops so they don’t come unwound.

Pom-poms are terrific for adorning wearable items like headbands and scarves, or even home decor items like throws, pillows and more. When you’re happy with your shape, use tweezers to carefully remove this one yarn length.Handmade pom-poms are some of my favorite secret weapons for easily adding pizzazz to my craft projects, since they add tons of terrific dimension and can be whipped up in just a matter of minutes. Wash, then work your pompom into your desired shape, using the marker yarn to show you the location of the centre front/back. Pull the needle through carefully to position the marker yarn. To do this, thread a tapestry needle with a piece of yarn in a contrasting colour and insert into the centre front through to the centre back – make sure your pompom is positioned with the central tie running around in a circle. To help you keep track of the front, back and sides of your pompom during trimming, try adding a length of contrasting yarn to your pompom to mark the centre front/back. Just make sure your shape doesn’t go too close to the grey circle (this is the pompom’s central yarn bundle), don’t go beyond the outer circle (this is the outer edge of the pompom), and don’t trim too close to the central tie down the side. To make your own pompom shapes, you can use our diagrams above as a guide to plan your shape (either trace or photocopy to your desired enlargement).
