Thank you so much for this. I've crocheted for years, but just found out about this pom pom maker today! You are a wonderful teacher and I loved your tutorial. I am so in awe of those who take time to help others in their hobbies. And, another vote for the windchimes. Who doesn't love windchimes! They're peaceful and serene.
She is making money from her videos.....its not like she’s giving her time away.
GREAT video!!!! Thank you. I just bought the same pom pom maker yesterday and spent the evening making pom poms☺️. I found that if I use 2 strands of yarn it takes me half the time to wind. Also, I used 1 strand brown, 1 strand beige on some (some are solid colored) ........I'm making bunnies for Easter for my grandbabies!!!! One Pom Pom is small, the other is larger....I'll tie them together. The bunnies will be an assortment of colors. I'll be sewing on beaded eyes, a nose, ears, and whiskers. So anxious to do the first one to see how it turns out!!!! Looking forward to watching more videos from you!!!!
Thank you so much for showing me how to make pompoms. I went right out and ordered the four different sizes of Clover pompom makers. Being a very frugal crafter, using left over material from one project to use on another, I figured out that you can actually use the fluff from shaping your pompom to stuff small projects that don't require a lot of stuffing (i.e. felt Christmas ornaments). Try it, you will love it. Thanks again. :)
Thanks so much for the demo on how to actually open and use the pom-pom. My poms
turned fabulous! I found that the poms turn out nicer with a few more wraps in the middle than at the edges.
I remember as a little girl, my Grandma teaching me to knit. She also taught me how to make pom pom's by wrapping the yarn around a few of my fingers then TRYING to tie the middle with one hand..HAHAHA I JUST literally bought a medium and large pom pom maker. Who ever thinks of "inventing" all these clever gadgets??? I LOVE THEM!

I learned as a little girl how to make them using a piece of cardboard, but this is so much nicer!
@@donnamaupin1197 also, to make a big pom, wrapping over a big piece of cardboard can really wear out your arm!😄
The wind-chimes give your video a very relaxing feeling, I'd leave them open for future videos. Thanks for sharing this tutorial!
Lovely and helpful:)
Great video. I have same pom pom maker but your video showed me I wasn't doing enough wraps. Now filling with more wraps and now have fluffy poms. I make baby items for charity and usualy add poms to the little hats.
Margaret Knapp would love to see your creations
That’s so cool keep up the good work!!
Thanks so much for this! So much better than the very short instructions on the package.
I love the gentle sound of the wind chimes in the background too.
The sound when cuts the threads is so satisfying.
Thank you for a SUPERB tutorial, I'll definitely be buying one of these - so much easier than circles of cardboard! And the gentle windchimes in the background are far nicer than some background music on other videos.

I am new to crocheting and was looking up how to use the pom pom maker. I am really glad I watched your video. It made a huge difference.
love your video the first one went fantastic. the second one was evidently not tied tight enough as it fell apart piece by piece. the third one I my yarn broke as I was tightening it. was ready to cry!!!! so then I did another and this time I doubled the yarn before tieing it and it worked splendidly! thanks so much for your great vidios.
Man, how could anyone give any of your videos a thumbs down - ignore the haters Laura, you are fabulous!!
he he thank you Miss Bee :)
I was thinking the same thing! I found this video to be very helpful. :)
Maybe they don't like pom poms😄😁
😣
Dilaravamp A , I can't imagine how anyone could not like a pom pom. One of the cutest things in the world:)
I have discovered that wrapping with consistant loose tension will prevent the need for excess trimming. If some wraps are tighter than others when you cut the yarn they pop back shorter and the loosey goosey wraps don't so then you have different strand lengths and "edges" you have to trim.
Awesome tutorial and example! Lovely wind chimes and did not distract from watching you complete your pompom! Thank you so much for your time in teaching us this wonderful activity. I am going to make a rug by using your examples!!
OMG 😱😱😱, these are so darn cute!!! This is my first time here and I believe I’ve found my newest hobby/obsession.... 😱💕😍💕! For a novice Pom Pom maker like me, I found your instructions easy to follow, concise, and the video itself was clear and bright. Also, to the people who gave this video a 👎🏽, stop being haters!!! Once again, THANK YOU 🙏 so much!!!
thank you for a great video! some of the vids out there dont explain that key fact you did at the beginning whereby you must make sure the two creamy bits line up so you are working over two, for ages we couldnt grasp how to do these vids but it turns out we were only wrapping over one part of each side if that makes sense. THANK YOU!!!! XX
i've had these for ages, but completely forgot how to use them. I've just spent the evening making a giant fluffy pom pom spider now thanks to this video :)
I think the wind chimes sound lovely.
I like those sounds the wind chimes. and love those pompoms
I used various sizes of these Pompom makers, and they never fail to impress.Thanks for the demo, I often need to refresh my mind on how to use them.
Great video! I make these using fleece strips (flarn) for my sugar gliders. One thing you can do differently to make it even sturdier is use a zip tie in the center.
Very nice! And I enjoyed the wind chimes! Your directions are so much better than the ones on the Clover package. Thank you for your very clear instructions!
Awesome, I love ❤️ it? Where do you get the Pompom maker
@@sandragallant1524 . Mmtt6
This is GREAT!! I bought one of these a few years ago and the directions are in a foreign language! I could not for the life of me figure out how to use this. Haha. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!! 😁🎉❤❤
I have these pom pom makers, and they are wonderful. They are worth every penny.
If the pompoms themselves fall apart, that means your tying thread wasn't tight enough around all the strands of yarn that make up the pompom. Wind the tying yarn around the pompom strands twice, pull on both ends real tight, but not so tight as to break the yarn. Now when you make the knot, do a normal knot, but before you tighten it down, wrap the yarn through the knot one more time, so it goes through the knot twice, now tighten it down nice and tight and pull on both ends hard, but again, not so hard that you break the yarn. Now, make one more simple knot and pull that one tight too. That is called a surgeon's knot. The special way you make the first knot by wrapping the one length of yarn around the other one twice helps to prevent that knot from slipping loose before you get to tie the second knot to secure the first one.
SpiritBear12 Thank you for this! A very good hint. I will use it.
So glad I finally bought my Pom Pom maker. Didn't know how to use it until I found your video. Alsome. Better than wrapping around the hand.
Great tips! Love your accent and love the wind chime! It sounds beautiful! This is a great tutorial, you are great at it and are very inspiring! Love ya
I love the wind chimes!
OM.......this is the best ever you tube tutorial ever. It's so easy to follow and the visuals are so explicit!
Thank you for showing me how to use the pom pom maker !!! The directions on the package made no sense. Your tutorial was so helpful !!!!!!
I just got me a a set and zi agree the directions are worthless.This tutorial will help
Thanks - I’ve built computers - but couldn’t work out the packet directions! Great video .....
The directions on the package sucked. I enjoyed the tutorial. I watched about 3 times.
Thank you, HappyBerry! I knit a lot of hats and scarves to which I add pom-poms. I have a Clover Pom-Pom maker, but I've been using it all wrong. I wrapped far too little yarn. Well done on a clear and simple video.
Thank you for doing these tutorials i am doing Pom poms for myother crochet items and get my daughter to help me with Pom poms too X Love the wind chimes XX
I purchased my Clover Pom Pom makers on Amazon and needed a video to show me how to use them and found yours. THANK YOU!! I will get to work on my pom poms now :)
I have purchased the clover pom pom making devices and made two before watching this video. The key is in the wrapping and of course sharp skizzers. My first one is pathetic, the second better, big hopes the third will be perfect. You're a good teacher! Thank you and best of luck to all is Australia. Peace be with you.
Love the wind chimes. Definitely not disturbed by them. Love wind chimes.
Love your wind chimes. Do not close window. Thank you for your instructions. So very clear
This is the best pom pom maker I’ve seen demonstrated. Thank you for sharing.
i have several sizes of these and they're excellent! thanks to your vid of course. the scissor cutting does some kind of noise cancellation on your vid but i can still work out what you're saying (happens for a few mins around half way through). I particularly love working with the extra small one which makes the teeniest of pompoms! super cute. i attach them around the bottom two edges of crocheted triangular shawls i make in cashmere. love bit of luxury! :-)
I truly enjoyed your tutorial as well as your wind chimes. LOL Between the wind chimes and the snipping of the straggly bits I found myself a bit mesmerized. Also, the initial snipping of the yarn while in the pompon maker is a rather gratifying sound. Thank you for making such a good tutorial and showing how to make a truly fluffy pompom.
I’ve tried the cheap pom makers and the Clovers are sooo worth the extra price. I’ve bought the couple of sets to have 4 different sizes. It’s best to have the best tools!
I have just bought one of these pom pom makers, and had no idea how to use it. You explained it perfectly, thankyou.
Great video. Thank you. I love the wind chimes! Don’t close the window.
Thank you for this video and showing me how to use a pom pom maker! I was looking at the instructions on the packaging and they were not overly clear and gave no indication on how much wool to use, so this was fantastic and really informative. I can now make pom poms to my heart's content. To making a pom pom wreath for Christmas! Thank you again!!
Your scissors are so sharp! I love that sound they make lol. Nice tutorial 🎀
Thank you for the wonderful tutorial! The camera angle, simple instructions coupled with your pleasant voice make it a joy to watch. Looking forward to receiving mine in the mail!
I liked the windchimes☺ Thank you so much!! I plan to purchase a pom pom maker very soon!
Thank you so much! I’ve just bought some clover pom pom makers and this was such a clear, wonderful tutorial!
Thanks for the instructional! I was super concerned as to how tidy I needed to wrap around. Btw I struggled with just holding the loose end of the yarn, so I tied it to the arch and it seemed to work fine and helped stabilize the two halves of the tool
I alway give the pom pom a good shake., when I take it out on completion. That seems to show the long strands. Great video xx
What a terrific tutorial! When I bought the pom pom tool it made sense...then I got home with it and I chickened out lol Thank u for the vid...now I can make the rug I intended to without fear of wasting yarn!
I love your accent and use of words, such as bedraggled and brutal. I never thought learning how to properly make a pom pom could be so delightful. Your windchimes are lovely. Thanks!!
Aww thank you so much he he I take so many of what I say for granted that I love having various words pointed out to me! :D
I loved the wind chimes. And thanks for pointing out that pom poms require more trimming than you might expect.
Great pompoms! Could I give you a small hint? When taking the end of the yarn, try from the inside. Not always simple, but at least your ball of yarn won't toss and turn or even fall to the ground while your using it. This is what I do all the time and it saves my nerves.
Not all skeins have an easily identifiable center pull. I ball or cake all my yarn, it stores better, and if there are any factory joins, glue, or tangles you have them worked out before you are trapped into a project and stuck cutting and joining.
Best instructions on how to use the Clover Pompom Maker! Thank you!
I have the Clover pompom makers and I see that I wasn’t wrapping enough to get the extra fluffy pompom ! Makes perfect sense now that I see your example. Thanks👍
wrap in the centre - then push to the side. do the same again, then push to the side. Then fill the middle - its a lot quicker and easier
i agree! i make my poms this way! wrap and count 10-20 wraps and then slide.. they will end up fluffy any gorgeous!
Girl the wind chimes made the video that much better!!! Thank you so much for sharing.. Have a blessed day.. 😉😉
Your wind chimes are not a bother! Thank you for sharing your video!
Thank you for making this tutorial! I was debating on whether or not to purchase one. I saw a different video and the pompom that was made was lame. You showed the right way and what a difference! I will now be purchasing one.
Very helpful and informative. Thank you! Don't close the windows...I love the wind chimes. It's charming ❤️
Many thanks for this tutorial. It was so easy to follow.I love the clover pompom makers. I tried making one from a cardboard stencil which I made myself, but the pompom fell to bits after 2 weeks, so glad to have the clover ones and know how to use them.Really pleased.
Nice end product. I like the wind chimes. Calming sound
thanks you. I got this pompom make with no instructions. It was assembled so I didn't realize you could separate it to let pom pom go. Wow, I was beginning to think I'd lost my mind. lol Thanks again. Great vid
Thank you for this tutorial. Very helpful. This is almost addictive! Especially when you are staying home.
Great video to show how to use these. Love making these and you are right them pom pom makers are the best. I just made a rug with mine came out ok. I would like to share a cutting methord that I found good to make them the same size all the way round. The cutting method i use, (I it seen it done this way many years ago) is a bit hard to describe but will have a go. hold the pom pom on top of your first finger and thumb and hold it tight with the long wool into your hand find a section on the pom pom you happy with in length, and lay the scissors just air touching that section, and cut all long bits in front, then move forward keeping the scissors again just air touching the pom pom, and cut, this is acting as a level and you can move round it very fast only cut the bits that stick up higher than the scissors and your pom pom should be all same size without having to lose to much wool from it. I bet that reads as clear as mud lol 😂😂 hope you don't mind me sharing 🌻🌷
Denise Poole
Found these at home and had no idea how to use them. Thanks! 😍🙏🏼❤️
Very well done, easy to follow and clear unobstructed views of your work. Thanks for such a great video about Pom Poms!
Your wind chimes are great, remind me of home!
Bought myself those pom pom makers, I have 4 different sizes, didn't have a clue how they worked! so thank you for the tutorial I shall now have a go in making one!
love the snip snip sound :) could listen to it all day
*asmr*
I have never made a Pom Pom before but I wanted one for a crochet beanie I just made, my daughter had exactly the same Pom Pom maker as yours, the Clover Pom Pom maker. The instructions on the package were a bit vague,so looked up a tutorial and found yours and I’m so happy I did! You explained everything so well and I was able to follow your instructions exactly and I made half one side white and other side pink. I wasn’t sure how it was going to turn out and I thought it might have mixed both colours together but I’m guessing you have to use both colours on each side of the Pom Pom maker to get the mixed colours. It still looks great, so thank you so much for this tutorial, I have watched quite a few and love how you explain everything thoroughly! Greetings from a UK expat now living on Vancouver Island, Canada
I absolutely love how you showed how to use the pom pom maker! I wouldn't had known how to use one. lol I love your voice and your wind chimes! 😁 Thank you
I love the windchimes in the background it makes for a nice relaxing sound
Thank you so much for the video. Second one I have made and they are great. Easy for Grandma to make! Thank you.
I'm glad I found your tutorial! I went right out and purchased a couple pom pom makers and waiting on my jumbo pom pom maker to arrive in a few days!!
Laura, thank you for a lovely, gentle, peaceful craft tutorial, with natural and excellent commentary (not a hundred words per second being excitedly shrieked and upspeaked at me nor a musical repeat soundtrack either 🤭) this is great. I shall go and look up this pom pom maker and check out your other vids! Best wishes to you 🤗❤
Thank you so much!
Your video was amazing. My 10 and 8 years old daughters loved it.They loved it so much that they asked me to buy the clover pom Pom maker.
I use these pompom makers and love them! But, I never put that much yarn! So, thats something I learned!!! Thank you! Also, I found that if I wet the yarn that I tie it together at the end, it keeps it tighter . Wetting it stretches the yarn a bit, and then it shrinks back when dry. Have you ever heard of that?
Thank you because you are the only one who said how to make the pom pom fluffy and looking wonderful every one else shows how to make skimpy pompoms
Nothing worse than a skimpy pom pom!
I sent away for these Pom Pom makers and they came with the most bizarre Chinese instructions! They obviously did not use a proficient English translator and my husband and I were laughing at their attempt to translate from Chinese to English. Thank you so much for this video, I was going to just throw away the pom Pom maker out of frustration, but you made it so easy to understand. :)
Ummmmm.... Lol.... All I can say right now is... WOWWWW.. Really Incredible Crafts!
Thanks for a great tutorial. I am about to make my first Pom Pom and thought I would get one of these clover Pom Pom makers. I would never have done that many wraps but see I need too. So thank you for the great explanation. I have no fear now.
The chimes are beautiful!
Oh my goodness. I ordered the Clover pom pom makers and got them in the mail the other day. wow. I am saving this video. This will come in so handy when I get back to making the hats. whoot whoot.
Informative. Looks like the key to success is really filling out the pom pom maker with yarn and trimming.
I know this is a older video, but I found the windchimes to be quiet lovely! I love the sound they make...
I was making pom poms for my cats with a piece of cardboard wow this is game changing 🤣
Excellent tutorial! Thank you !!
I thought the chimes in the background were very soothing!
I have all the different sizes of the clover pompom makers, but never liked the way they came out. Thank you I just wasn't wrapping enough yarn. And I couldn't hear the wind chimes!
This was a great video for a beginner like me. I could listen to your voice and accent all day!
Wind homes not disturbance to me, very peaceful!
Not to sound like a weirdo, but I could listen to your accent all day! Just came across your video. I very much enjoyed it! Thanks for posting!
Love all your tutorials. Thank you. Just received a pompom maker as a present. Wasn't sure what i was doing so watched and was a great big help. Thanks again d☺
P.S. Your video is what I needed to understand how to use the pom pom maker. ❤
Thanks a lot! I bought it yesterday and though it has an instruction we ( my husband and I) could not figure out how that thing works. Subscribed with a great pleasure!
I have always wanted to make pom poms and this is really easy thank goodness and very relaxing.
Ditto on the previous comment - totally helped figure the device out and it’s amazing!!!
I would end up with a pea sized pompom.!! But it does look fun. I'm going to give it a go. Thanks for such an easy tutorial.x
Thank you so much for this amazing teaching video. You’re a wonderful teacher-1001 t. I am very fortunate to have found you on CZcams. I, too, purchased the Clover Pom-Pom Maker Set and had absolutely no idea how to interpret the extremely limited instructions. I send an email to address on the package but never received a reply. Additionally, the package states “See instructions inside for details”., of which there were none. I highly recommend the Fiskars 190520-1001 Titanium Micro-Tip Easy Action Scissors, 5-inch. Again, many, many thanks for showing me how to make Pom-poms!
There are grooves/slots in the center piece I use to anchor the starting yarn, then anchor again when I wrap there other side
I couldn't figure this out for the life of me! Thank you for your superb video! Love the chimes and your charming accent!
