| Learn how to make pom-poms of coordinated colors and different textures to liven up a purchased scarf! This makes a fun project for a group -- a party, Brownie group or class. Ask each child to bring a single skein of yarn and a scarf for decorating. Share the yarns between the members of the group -- there will be many types and colors! |

Pom-Pom Fringe for a Scarf
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® - Lion® Suede
GAUGE: Exact gauge is not essential to this project.
NOTES: Do NOT make pom-poms from a yarn that is going to shed fibers -- plush and chenille yarns are generally not suitable! If you have any doubt, cut a strand and see if there will be a problem before you make a pom-pom and end up with nothing but a handful of fluff.
|
|
POM-POM DECORATION
Make 10 pom-poms.
| 1. Hold one strand of each of the colors between the
thumb and forefinger of one hand. Spread your fingers
apart and wind the yarn around your hand 10 times.
Keeping your fingers apart will keep the yarn from falling
off.
Cut the yarn and hold the cut ends between your thumb and
forefinger as well.
If you are making the pom-pom with a small child,
consider having them hold the yarn and winding it around
both their hands so they can be part of the process! |
 |
| 2. Cut a 24-inch [60 cm] piece of the yarn that you want
to use to tie the pom-pom to the scarf. Double it
over. Pass it between your middle and ring
finger underneath the bundle of the yarn. Tie it
off, pulling the yarn as tight as you cal.
If you are making the pom-pom with a child, pass the end
of the yarn between their two hands, pull it together
tightly and tie off.
|
 |
| 3. You will have a bundle of yarn with a long tail that
consists of the yarn you used to tie off. Insert
scissors into the loops of the bundle and cut the loops. |
 |
| As soon as you do, the yarn will fluff up and you'll have
a pom-pom.
If the ends are not even or if you don't like the shape,
trim the pom-pom with the scissors until you are happy.
|
 |
| 5. Lay the scarf flat on the table, right side up with the
edge facing you. Insert the crochet hook from the bottom to
the top approximately ¼ inch [.5 cm] from the end and side
of the scarf and pull half of the long yarn that secures the
pom-pom through the scarf. Tie it to the other
piece of long yarn so that the pom-pom is attached to the
scarf. Tie it securely -- use at least one more
knot than you really think you need just to be sure it won't
come loose! Trim ends.
Repeat the procedure for the other side of the scarf so
that there are two pom-poms on the outside edges of the same
end of the scarf.
Fold the scarf in half lengthwise with the pom-poms
together so you can tell where the middle is.
Put another pom-pom there.
Place the last two pom-poms evenly spaced between the
ones that are on the scarf.
Note: You may want to tie the pom-poms so they are
close to the scarf, or you may want to leave an inch so that
the pom-poms hang down and move more. Or, as in our
example, you may want to mix lengths -- we tied three close
to the scarf and put the two between them
|
 |
| Repeat at other end of scarf. |
