  2. It's gorgeous Tina, do those pom-pom thingos work? Does the fork? So much easier than cardboard circles (the way I learned to make them in Brownies!) x

    1. Thanks so much Kylie!. The pom pom thingos were as effective as the folk technique or instead of a folk just using your fingers to roll the yarn around... personally I wouldn't spend the money on the pom pom makers again. Cardboard circles pom poms at Brownies - how totally gorgeous :-)!xx Tina
