Bommeln

A ready made pompom saves winding and trimming – and turns out more even than one made by hand. It sits on hats, cushions, bags and children's clothes.

Many pompoms have a snap fastener or a loop. That lets them be removed before washing, which matters especially with faux fur – the pile mats quickly in a machine.

To sew one on, catch the underside several times, ideally with strong thread. A single stitch tears out as soon as someone pulls, and someone always pulls.

On a hat the pompom sits centred on the crown. Mark the spot beforehand, as a crooked pompom is immediately obvious.

For toddlers, attach especially firmly and check regularly. A loose pompom is a small part that has no business near a mouth.

Good to know

Why do some pompoms have a snap fastener?

So they can be removed before washing. Faux fur in particular mats in the machine and looks straggly afterwards; removed, the pompom stays in good shape.

How do I attach a pompom securely?

With strong thread and several stitches through the underside, spread in a star. A single stitch tears out as soon as someone pulls – and someone always pulls.

Are pompoms suitable for baby hats?

Only if they are very firmly attached. Check regularly; a loose pompom is a small part that has no place near a toddler.
