Pom pom
Now all you need to do is add your favorite size pom pom. I cut a piece of cardboard about 3 ½” x 6”. I wrapped blue and green yarn together on the 3 ½” side for about 40 times. Slide it off the cardboard and tide it nice and tight in the middle about 2 times. Cut yarn loops all around, after you cut them open, you can trim the edges to make it nice and round.
