Trivial Pursuits - Pom Pom making

Another thing I got up to last weekend when friends came to visit with their kids was a marathon pom pom making session.  Overhearing their mum explain that she would show them how to make them the traditional way using cardboard I couldn't resist the urge to leap in and introduce them to the amazing time-saving pom pom maker that had Kirsty Allsop so giddy when she discovered them on her last C4 series.
However, there are several ways to make your pom pom, so here are some YouTube clips using cardboard, special machines or just your hand, as well as my own visual tutorial for making multiple mini pompoms 
which I discovered when making bootees to complement my moptop hats which you can see here and buy from our website.  

Just using your hand .....
... or cardboard ...
... or a special machine ...

Enjoy!

And of course, let us see how you get on or which method you prefer, or indeed, if you have a method of your own.
