How to make a rug from pompons do it yourself: professional advice

There are a number of recommendations from experienced needlewomen who should be considered when starting work on the original rug.

• Before you start making a rug from pompons, you need to decide on the technology of manufacturing the latter. In order to get the curvaceous details for the rug, you can wind the threads on round stencils, fingers or a dining fork.
• Threads should be as straight as possible. That is, if you use loose knitted things, wet the yarn and leave it under the press - so it will straighten. Otherwise, the pompons will quickly turn into a shapeless mass.
• When using old knitwear things, they need to be cut into thin strips (which requires tremendous patience), otherwise the idea simply will not work.
• In order for the pompons to turn out fluffy, the thread winding pattern must be wide enough.
• Each pom-pom must be well secured so that, by accidentally blooming, it does not break the entire structure.
• If you make a carpet of a certain shape, then be sure to build a paper pattern - then it is easy and accurate to calculate the number of elements.
• Fixing pompons on the base, arrange them in a staggered manner tightly to each other - then the rug will be lush, but not overtightened;
• To make the coating soft, make the base double, and between its parts, insert a synthetic winterizer.
