Put a Pom on It: 7 Patterns for the Pom Pom Craze

Put a Pom on it! One of Fall’s hottest fashion crazes is pom poms. Fun and quick to make, poms are great for using up leftover bits of yarn. They’re also easy embellishments and add a touch of whimsy to projects, as you can see below. Aside from the scarf, any of these projects can be made without the poms, but they bring home the design with a touch of flair.
