To make fluffy pom poms out of cardboard, first cut two doughnut-shaped circles from cardboard. Place them together, then wind yarn around the doughnut shape, passing it through the hole in the center until the entire surface is thickly covered. Cut the yarn between the two cardboard pieces, around the outer edge, then tightly tie a separate yarn piece around the middle (between the cardboard pieces). Finally, remove the cardboard and fluff up your pom pom. Trim any uneven strands to create a perfect sphere.
