Description
Most of us know how to make a pompom, but Vietnamese artist Henry Le’s creations take pompom making to another level. Using a delightfully clever yet easy method of layering yarn colours plus careful trimming, Henry achieves shading and structure to make eye-catching pompoms that stand out from the crowd. In Pom Pom Pom Christmas, Henry presents fun and festive pompoms to create, from Santas to snowflakes and gingerbread men to candy canes. A comprehensive techniques section tells you everything you need to know to get started before embarking on the projects. Then every design is accompanied by a simple diagram showing how to build up the layers of yarn on a pompom maker. Step-by-step text and photographs guide you through the making process from start to finish, so it’s easy for beginners to create with confidence. And as well as the array of pompom projects, a handy section shows how to turn these adorable little pompoms into ornaments so that you can easily adorn your home with handcrafted charm. Projects include: star, Christmas tree, snowflake, holly, snowman, candy cane, Christmas stocking, Santa Claus, Rudolph, Christmas pudding.
