Helpful Tips:
Can I make a smaller version of this pom pom otter?
Yes, you can make a pom pom baby otter! Just use a smaller pom pom maker and trim the feet and tail pom poms smaller. You can also glue craft pom poms together, instead of making your own, to create a teeny tiny otter!
What should I use for my pom pom otter’s eyes?
We used 4mm round black beads for our DIY pom pom otter’s eyes. You can also use safety eyes, glass eyes for doll-making, tiny black pom poms, or black felt.
Do I need a latch hook tool for this pom pom otter craft?
A latch hook tool makes assembly of your pom pom otter easier, especially when threading yarn through tight pom pom centers. But you can also use tweezers, a large blunt needle, or even a crochet hook in a pinch. This pom pom otter craft is such a fun project for animal lovers and yarn crafters alike! From its dark eyes to its cute little tail, it’s definitely full of charm.
