making these!
I'm spending my evenings threading wool around a plastic doughnut to make as many of these as I can. Any of you seen the accesorize windows recently? Our one has garlands made of tons of these strung around them, with accesories hanging off them. I have to walk past it every day, worse luck! I thought they would look great or christmas, either hanging over the mantlepiece, or around the tree like tinsel, or anywhere really! Anyway,I found out that these garlands are essentially the same as the scarves they are selling in store, just with a cord on the end so that they can be hung, so the price will probably end up being the same(ish) price when they come out of the window. No, I thought I'd make them instead! I'm got 8 so far... only about 20 more to go...
I love the pom poms and the fact that you are thinking of christmas already. Nice to know I'm not the only one starting the festive planning before Halloween has even passed. Can't wait to see them all finished and hung!
ReplyDeleteI helped run a pom-pom making stall at a library fete just the last Friday! Find them quite relaxing to make, but time consuming. Good for taking on planes though as not a pair of knitting needles / needle / crochet hook in sight!
ReplyDeletep.s Great colours!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE pompoms! I'm lazy though and after 4 years of sitting in our 'assorted nonsense' drawer the remnants of my last half-made attempt went in the bin in out grand de-clutter last month.
ReplyDeleteI need to become more of a crafty person. I love the pom pom look.
ReplyDeletePS. I have a little something on my blog for you :)
Love them. As soon as I saw the picture I thought of Accessorize! Too cute!
ReplyDeleteAwww... they will look great for Christmas!! We've decided not to do anything decorative for Christmas but if we were, they will be sooo cool!!!
