Instructions
Making the Pom Poms
Begin by wrapping the yarn around two fingers (smaller pom pom). Thicker, softer yarn works best. Wrap it around at least 60 times.
Carefully slip the looped yarn off fingers, keeping the loops in tact. Cut a separate 5 inch piece of yarn.
Slip the separate piece of yarn underneath the looped yarn and wrap it around to the front, tying it REALLY TIGHT.
Next, slip a pair of scissors through the loops and cut through them.
Keep cutting all the loops. Your pom pom will look uneven and a little wonky. Trim it up and give it a “haircut” until it looks nice and even.
For the second, larger pom pom, repeat the process above but wrap the yarn around the whole hand. Trim the larger one as well.
Using a glue gun, attach the smaller and larger pom poms together (the smaller as the head, the larger as the body.)
Assembling your Bunny
Cut out some ear shapes out of gray felt and a smaller shape out of pink felt.
Layer the pink on top of the gray and pinch the bottom. Glue the pinched portion together. Glue the ears to the head of the bunny.
Next, take two black pony beads and glue them onto the smaller pom pom as eyes.
For the whiskers, loop some clear thread together and tie it in half. Snip through the loops with scissors and glue it on the bunny’s face.
Glue the pink pony bead on top for the nose.
And finally, add a cotton ball onto the back of the larger pom pom for the tail.
Your pom pom bunny is complete!
