- Then, start wrapping the yarn around the fork and make sure that the first round of our warping holds the end securely.
- Keep wrapping for more than 30 to 35 times and then, cut off the yarn from the main ball with a scissor.
- After that, tie off the end inside one or two last wrappings and secure your entire yarn wrapping compactly.
- Then, take your precut piece of yarn and push the end through fork centre. Here you need to push on one side of that yarn piece from the centre of the fork and take out that end from the other side of the yarn bundle, as you can see in the video.

- After, double knot the yarn as much tightly as you can and cut away the extra yarn part from that piece.
- Now take the scissor and cut through all the loops from that bundle. Give it a haircut to round the pom-pom all out.
- When you feel that your small little pom-pom is fluffy and uneven from all the sides, it is all ready to use in your any craft.
