I thought it was easy to make a yarn pompom when I found this web site the other day. In the reality, it is NOT 
. The instruction on the site was only four steps to make. I followed the exact steps, but at step 2 when I began to cut the yarn, the thing started falling apart. I was basically cutting the yarn in half around the cardboard. That was my 1st attempt. At my2nd attempt, we put a single strand of yarn between the two pieces of cardboard at step 1 to hold the cut yarn. It was more successful than the 1st attempt, but when I tied the all yarn together, it was a very disheveled pompom. We had to trim it like haircut to do a final touch to make a perfectly rounded pompom.
Here is my yarn pompom. It doesn’t look bad after all, does it? But it was not easy. The yarn color I used was “mint chocolate” (mint green + dark brown).
