Hi knitters,

So here's a tutorial tip on how to create a fast pom pom with using just a fork and yarn - no cardboard required!

Here, we used:

Lola Pom Slippers knitting kit

This kit is perfect if you're learning to knit as it teaches you all the basics in knitting including how to cast-on, cast off, increase and decrease, knit and purl! Grab your knit kit here.

Beginner's guide - How to make a pompom

Step 1

Take an ordinary fork and wrap the yarn horizontally around it approximately 30-35 times.

Step 2

Thread a scrap yarn through the bottom of the fork and tie off the wrap with a knot.

Step 3

Pull the wrap off the fork and pull the knot tighter. Tie anther knot to secure.

Voila!
