I have a really cute craft book to share with you today!
It's called Adventures in Pompom Land
and has 25 different
heirloom quality animals that you can make from pompoms!
These are handmade pompoms made of wool yarn, not like the
ones you buy by the bag at the craft store. The pompoms are
then trimmed and shaped to become the sweetest little animals
you ever saw. Many of them have felt and felted wool
roving as added features.
There are instructions for all the techniques used and
plenty of pictures for each project. I was most amazed
at how the subtle shaping of the pompoms really
brings each animal to life.
One of my favorites is this adorable fluffy-tailed gray
squirrel and the author has graciously shared
the tutorial here for you to give it a try!
