FRIDAY FUN DAY! Clover Stuffie Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

 FRIDAY FUN DAY!
Clover Stuffie Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

The Clover Stuffie 
is the Perfect Crochet Pattern 
For  FRIDAY FUN DAY!

The Clover Stuffie, softie, little pillow, 
whatever you want to call it, is so stinking cute.
It's just the right size to play with, or set around 
for a fun St. Patrick's Day Decoration.
You can even add a hanger and hang it up.

This silly little clover is made using Premier 
Parfait Chunky Pom pom yarn, 
in the lime green color way. I love how all the
 little "pom poms" are spread through out
 the yarn. It gives it such a playful appearance.

Of course those safety eyes and smile 
make it super fun and silly.
It was super fun to stitch up, 
and is super fun to have around the house.


Just A Reminder : 
If you are going to make this for a small child, 
do not use safety eyes, as they can pull them out 
and choke on them.

Live Video Chat with Sara - "Is it a Pompom or A Pompon? And Whats the best way to make one? | Posh Pooch Designs



This Week on our Live Video Chat with Sara Sach of
Posh Pooch Designs
See The Live Video Chat on my Youtube Channel
at This LINK


I received this Question a few weeks ago,
 "Is it a Pompom or A Pompon? And 
Whats the best way to make one?

I have always called them "Pompoms" 
So I went to Wikipedia.
"A pom-pom – also spelled pom-ponpompom or pompon –
 is a loose, fluffy, decorative ball or tuft of fibrous material.
Pom-poms may come in many colors, sizes, and varieties and
 are made from a wide array of materials, including wool, 
cotton, paper, plastic, and occasionally feathers."

I guess I was right and wrong!

My Favorite way to make Pompoms really depends on the size I need make.
here are my 3 Favorites ways to make Pompoms.
See the Video Of how I make Pompoms on my Youtube Channel at this Link

1. For Tiny Pompoms.
I use my fingers.

2. For Medium Pompoms.
I use toilet paper rolls.

3. For Large Pompoms.
I use a large embroidery hoop.

How I make Pompoms - Picture Tutorial

I love making pompoms.
 Many people have asked me,
 how I make mine.
Well, there are lots of contraptions
 you can use, 
and lots of different ways.

I have tried making pompoms 
with a pom pom maker,
 forks, card board tubes, 
and card board circles, 

But I like to just use my 
hand, scissors and yarn.
It is the simplest method
 I have every used.
And you can make 3 different sizes,
Again, just using your hand!
2 inch,   3 inch,     4 inch
Pom poms

This is an approximate measure, 
but it has been very accurate for me.

Okay, This is what I do.
For a 2 inch pom pom, 
I wrap the yarn around my 2 finger, loosely.

For a 3 inch pompom, 
I wrap the yarn around my 3 fingers, loosely.

For a 4 inch pom pom, 
I wrap the yarn around my 4 fingers, loosely.

You should be able to to
 wiggle your fingers.

The amount of wraps I do, 
depends on how thick I want the pom pom.
I usually wrap the yarn 20 to 30 times around.
 I have a 10 inch 
piece of yarn already cut.
I Slide that piece of yarn
 threw my fingers, 
with the tails to the front.
Then I Tie the yarn, 
and slide the loops off my fingers.

I then Make sure the
 tying yarn is centered, 
and tie securely.
Then I trim the pompom evenly.

This method works great for me.
I am working on a new Cowl design 
that will have pompoms and
 I will be using these pompoms.
