But this time, just draw one outline inside one circle.

Align the two cutouts with the donut hole circle disk on top.

Now, use a pencil to draw an outline of the inner circle hole onto the circle cutout underneath.

Go ahead and cut out that inner circle for the second piece, too!

This should give you an entrance of sorts, which youll need to wrap your yarn around later.

The disks should look something like this when youre done.

Now begin wrapping the yarn around the top of the disk, right above the hole.

Keep wrapping the yarn over and over and make your way around the disk.

The more yarn you wrap around the disk, the thicker and fluffier your pom poms will turn out.

But you dont have to stop there.
