FAQ: Crochet Pom Bows

How many bows can I make in an evening?

With chunky yarn and a large hook, you can batch several bows in a couple of hours—perfect for holiday prep night.

What yarn works best?

Chunky or super bulky yarns give the fullest look, but you can hold multiple strands of lighter yarn together for a scrappy, colorful effect.

Are the bows reusable?

Yes! That’s the point. These are keepsake toppers—store them with your ornaments and reuse next season.
