Materials:
- scissors
- black wool
- pink wool
- white wool
- pom maker
- waxed thread
- felting needle
Directions:
Step 1
To start, wrap black wool approximately ten times, then wrap white yarn next to it on half of the pom maker. Continue wrapping the white until you have a small area covered to the same thickness as those. This will be the dog’s nose. For the eyes, wrap some black yarn on top of the white, slightly above the nose. Wrap about ten times tightly in one spot. To make the tongue, wrap one chunky pink yarn below the nose, leaving a small gap next to it. Wrap a white yard to hold it in place. Now, cover everywhere with white yarn.

Step 2
Next, wrap the other half of your pom maker in white yarn. Wrap enough until it matches the volume of the first half. Once done, put the pom maker together, then cut on the center. Tie it strong and tight with waxed thread, then remove the pom maker. Start cleaning off the pom by trimming off the eye area first, then under the tongue, then the nose. Continue this, shaping every part while trimming. Use a felting needle to make shaping easier.
