Finishing The Back Of Pom Pom Rug

The pom poms will be tied to this to form the rug itself.

Finishing the back of pom pom rug.

Set the smallest pom pom maker aside as you will not need it. Be sure to check thrift stores and second hand stores for lower prices. It will be used to make the pom poms for the rug. We liked the look of the rug to have different size pom poms.

It is fluffy and cozy and the perfect addition to my boho bean bag in my reading corner. When you are trimming your pom poms leave the string tail nice and long. Around 2 3 per skein roll. Following that design makes your life easy and you ll finish the pom pom rug faster.

This one above was for a smaller pom pom the rolls below are for a larger one. The tails will attach our pom to the rug backing. Cut another piece of string and weave it through both of the rolls so it wraps around the whole thing. I hope you got inspired and off you go to diy your own unique pom pom rug.

Tie once then pull the rolls out. Finishing a latch hook rug helps to ensure the rug holds up to the test of time and it requires little more than rug binding and a sewing machine. Use the remaining three sizes of pom pom makers and make several pom poms in varying sizes colors and yarn weights. When you make your pom poms make sure you cut a nice long piece of string and double it up to wrap around the center.

The bigger the rug the more yarn you ll need. Step 1 cut all of the edges of the finished rug leaving two complete empty squares all around. That should leave about 1 2 inch of the canvas grid on all sides. Be sure to leave two long tails on the pom poms when trimming them to shape so you can tie onto the rug canvas.

I love my yarn rug.
