[@karanread3994]

i love make your pom pom blankets and i even made one for my niece and she loves it

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

Well done, They have been around a long time. Thanks for watching my channel.

[@michelleavery2083]

This brings back so many memories. I learnt to do this in primary school about 45 years ago. I couldn't quite remember before but it all came back. We were taught a slightly different way to tie up but your way gives a better pompom. I think our teacher learnt it as an occupational therapy project after he was injured in the 2nd world war.

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

My mum used to make them too. I had the flower looms when I was 10 I'm now nearly 55 It just goes to show sometimes the old ways are always revivable and will be around for a long long time. They are very therapeutic to make I have arthritis and it keeps my joints moving. Thank you so much for watching. I hope you subscribe.

Your welcome once you work out how to do it you can make lots of combinations do lines by tying a line and missing a line all over your board cut the pom poms then put your next color on and just tie the ones without pom poms

so beautiful super works

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

thank you xx

[@nicolasayer6804]

How would you finish it if you didn't want the fringe.

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

There is no way to avoid a fringe. You can ease it off and leave it uncut so it will have loops around the edge or push the fringe back and crochet around the edge but the fringe will still be there around the back.

[@daisyestibeiro2545]

it's beautiful Allison. thank you so much for detailed explanation. dear can u please also teach me how to make a star shaped pom pom blanket. plz dear. I want to learn it cuz it looks really beautiful. also inform me what kind of frame is used to make the same

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

The star blanket is someone else design I wont be allowed to show you how to do it sorry.

[@achuhani4537]

How to make big blanket?Its very small na?

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

Make a bigger loom thats the only way as the do not join very well it is difficult to get the pom poms symetrical when you tie them together to make big big blankets and also very heavy to wash.

[@diannejackson7760]

what are the measurements for the loom pls xx

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

There is a tutorial pom pom blanket part 1 this shows you how to make a loom and there is a size diagram you can pause on. Once you see how to make one you can make it any size you want. The tutorial is a standard UK pram. ( not the large silver cross type )This is a demo loom I use to show diffrent patterns as I dont sell blankets there is not much point in making lots of large ones. ( I only make them for my family and we don't have many babies )

[@sangitasarang3551]

Excellent..

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

Thank you xx

[@bonniejeanthomasduarte734]

Hi Allison where can I buy a shuttle

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

ebay or amazon they are very cheap. I used a spanner for ages because i didn't have a shuttle I works brilliant.

[@siyadey4721]

mam please show me how to tie the ribbon

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

just weave it in and out the gaps around the blanket then tie a bow.

[@siyadey4721]

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

[@whomstareyou8013]

why can't we place a baby on it?

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

If you place a baby ON it be well advised they may pull out the pom poms. It is not a toy and young babies and young toddlers have good strength and could pull out the strands of the pom poms. Thus causing a chocking hazard I would not recommend wrapping a baby in it either, as it makes them too hot and very young babies cannot control their temperature very well. They are for decorating the top plastic cover that comes with your baby pram or stroller.

[@whomstareyou8013]

The reason I ask this is because I also see many tutorials on how to make pom pom blankets like this for babies

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

I would never recommend them to wrap a baby in or to make them for cots or toddler beds, these should only be used for decoration, but it is up to the person making them and selling them to warn the buyer of the possible danger. I don't sell mine and when I give them away I always always tell them the danger of the small strands if small babies or very young children are left to play with them or left lying on them.

[@margaretchellew3037]

Alison Russell's Craft Channel 🙁

[@robertireland2786]

There is a hell of easier way of doing them and a lot less wool used

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

If you mean doing pom poms by hand I tried that too difficult to get them all the same size and keep them uniform. How would you do it ??

[@florencefrederick3597]

Alison Russell's Craft Channel I would like to know too of course we would like to save wool and make these faster. Hope your going to tell us

[@linakapgate911]

plz you can explain your video in hindi language

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

I can't speak Hindi sorry and translation will take too long. There is an option to translate the tutorial for anyone who knows English and Hindi.

[@AlisonRussellsCrochetChannel]

The translation takes to long for me because I know no Hindi.
