Yarn Pom Pom Chicks

Yarn pom poms are easy to make and fun for both adults and kids. There are a variety of projects you can make with them such as branches in a vase, wreaths, fairies, scarves, garlands, mobiles, keychains and of course, animals such as these pom pom chicks.

Yarn Pom Pom Chicks

This is a cute project for Easter or spring. The video below shows just how easy it is, though children may need some help tying and knotting. Also, I’ve used a hot glue gun to add the googly eyes and beak. You can use white craft glue instead if you prefer.

As I mentioned in my pom pom branches project, I have lots and lots of craft supplies left over from S&S Worldwide from when I was working on my craft kits for kids. I had this skein of yellow yarn just screaming to be turned into little pom pom chicks!

How to make Pom Pom Chicks

The instructions are simple. Wrap the yarn around two fingers (small children can use three), counting and wrapping 100 times. Tie a piece of yarn around the center of your yarn loops and pull it tight, then knot it a couple of times. Use scissors to cut the ends of the loops then trim and shape the yarn ends into a fluffy ball!
