Yarn-Ball Bookmark!

O.K. So we found this idea on Pinterest, followed the link to a blog, then followed that blog's link to another blog! And now we are posting it on our blog! Enjoy!

Supplies:
Scissors 

Yarn

YES! That's all! But you'll want your scissors to be sharp :)

*Before you start, cut an 8-10 inch piece of yarn and a 15 inch piece of yarn. Just set them aside to be used in later steps. 

Wrap the yarn around about three fingers (snug, but not too tight) about 90 times.

Next, use your 8-10 inch piece of yarn and wrap it around the center of your yarn ball (as shown above).

Thirdly, use your 15 inch piece to make a tail (tying it around the 8-10 inch piece).

Fourthly-we can't believe that's a word!-, cut the loopy part (the picture explains it better)

Finally, give your pompom thingamagiger a haircut! But be sure not to cut the 'tail'.

And that's it! You're done! Now, we're going to try and make one that doesn't fall apart looks awesome!
