I bought this specifically for making pom poms and it works wonderfully for this purpose. My sister gave me a a set of three pom poms for juggling practice, she's a teacher and also uses them for different games and activities with her young students. I thought they were so fun and cute! Once she told me they're super easy to make I had to try making my own. This yarn is soft and easy to work with, I highly recommend it. Great if you're looking for a fun, simple and easy craft project. I'll definitely be back for more colors!
