PRESENTING MY HANDMADE POM POM RUG || MY FINISHED WIP 2π₯³
Greetings my fellow needleworkers. In a few hours, the WIP (work in progress) challenge initiated by our amiable Admin @crosheille will end! Oops!!!!β¦. taking part in this challenge was so exciting π, and I am glad to present my second WIP to you allπ€.
My last WIP project was a hanging bag and after that, I thought of crotcheting my baby cap since he needed one at the moment. I began the work but was getting it wrong in the process. I am yet to figure out what I wasn't getting right. Once I get above the button of the cap, the yarn π§Ά will start folding and I will lose it and start afresh! I have crocheted this cap and loosed it 7 times because it wasn't giving me the shape I wanted. I had to set it aside and pick up a fresh project which is the pom pom rug.
The abandoned baby capπ
Work in progress
Now, back to my current finished project! I decided on this particular project so I can replace the rug in my children's room. I would have just bought it in the market but as a needleworker, I decided to send my brain π§ to work and see what my hands can make π€π.
Let me take you through my work and the finish line....
Materials used:
- yarnπ§Ά
- cushion leather mat.
- foam
- thread π§΅
- needle
- scissors
Below ππ is the leather material I cut in love π shape, and foam also cut in love shape. I found these materials somewhere in my house and quickly reshaped them to what I wanted!π
Steps by step on how I made the pom pom rug...
Firstly, I rolled the yarn using my hand and counted 100 for every round. This is to get a uniform shape of the pom pom.
I also tried using an empty Mayonnaise can to see which method will be easier but you can choose any method of your choice
After each roll, I removed the yarn from my hand, cut the excess, and gently tie it. This method continues until I exhausted the available yarn π§Ά.
The next step is to cut each yarn at both ends to unravel the shape of the pom pom as seen below π
At this stage, I have gotten the shape of what my pom pom rug will look like and it was time for the needlework.
I started by sewing each yarn to the leather material already in love shape.
I continue sewing it until I got the full love shape. Then placed it on the foam together with the base leather mat I formed, and have them sewed together. I added the foam to make it look bouncy while matching the rugπ€
Here is the back side of my rug ππ
Here comes the final project, yahππ
Finished work
Seems my baby love the pom pom already including his brothers π, they couldn't stop bouncing on the rug. Glad they liked my handmade pom pom rug for their room.
Wow, seeing other amazing jobs from the members of#needleworkmonday has been so motivating. I am glad to come on board to exercise my little creativity. I hope to produce another work as soon as possible.
Thanks for stopping by!!!

Wow, this is so creative of you, I so much love the pom pom rug, it's beautiful and I can imagine how soft and warm it is.
All the best for the contest and I hope you finish your baby's cap soon so he doesn't get mad at you, lolz.
