Where Do I Buy a Clover Pom Pom Maker?

This post is written with the assumption that you are thinking about purchasing a pom maker or already own one.

If you were asking yourself, “Where do I buy a clover pom-pom maker?” I can help! You can buy these makers at most crafts stores, Amazon or directly from Clover.

You can click the images below to check out the different sizes of makers to see which one (or all!) would be best for you. They all work great!

What Yarn Should I Use in My Pom Pom Maker?

The answer to this question is simple! Whatever yarn you want! For this particular tutorial, I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice, which is a worsted weight four yarn, but you can use any yarn weight you prefer.

The chunkier the thread, the puffier the pom which makes for an even quicker DIY pom.

Below are some yarns that I think are great to use with a pom pom maker.

Read on down to learn how to use a pom maker in no time at all! Happy pom making!
