Knitting Help - Attaching Faux Fur PomPoms to Hats

- In this video, I demonstrate how I attach faux fur pompoms so that they are secure, yet removable when I wash the hat.
The hat pattern I show is Branta, more info here:

The details of my Branta hat are on my Ravelry page here:

The faux fur pompoms I use are the 4" size from this Etsy shop:

The button I use is from here on Amazon:

I love this idea. Your explanation and demonstration were so easy to understand. I’m finally excited to knit hats. Mamas thanks.
Your crystal clear explanations are far beyond anyone else's on RUclips, I mean it! Even for someone who is not a native English speaker, you make it impossible to misunderstand a stitch or a move. You are a real point of reference for knitting, specially for those who are self-taught, or should I say, RUclips-taught like me. So, once again, THANK YOU Staci!!! ❤️
The button idea is GENIUS! Thank you so much!!!
OMG...a button! That’s absolutely genius! I love it...my poms just wobble on the hat and I’m never satisfied with how they look. Using a large button as the base is so simple it’s scary. Thanks!

EXACTLY what I needed. Thank you! (and thank you also for getting straight to the point...one of many reasons I love your videos!)
Hey, that's what I'm here for! You're welcome. :)
I feel like my entire life has changed before my very eyes. LOL. All thanks to buttons! Thank you!
This is so timely! I just finished a hat and received my faux fur Pom Pom in the mail and was thinking there MUST be a RUclips video that has a good suggestion for attaching these. I came home from my LYS and opened my computer and here you are! Thanks for the great idea!
I'm impressed. I appreciate you showing the best way to attach a fake fur pom pom!
That button idea is fantastic! I just attached a big pompom from Fffabuknits and just tied it but the button gives stability and is clever!
So smart!!! I tie on all my poms, even the yarn ones. I generally thread the tails through at wider intervals and tie them down, but I will try this button method the next hat. Thanks for sharing the pattern as well! I absolutely love it!
I've been knitting pom pom hats like crazy for the holidays and never thought to use a button to attach the pom pom.. Thank you for the clever idea.
Love this video. Had been wondering how to secure pompoms and other decorations to hats in a way that still let me wash the hat. This is so great! Thank you, Straci, your videos and patterns are always so useful and inspirational.
Love the button hinge idea. I shall use this for all my poms!
You are so ON IT Stacy! Can’t wait to try this on my next hat. I was staring at one the other day and wondering how this thing wasn’t wobbling around, and how do they wash these things, etc. Thanks for the awesome tut.
I just ordered pompoms from the same site yesterday- and now I will know how to attach them securely!
Great way to attach. I bought one that had a giant snap, which I like a lot, but wanted more colors and all I could find did not have the snap. Your way of attaching is genius. Thank you so much.
This was a great video. I have a bunch of these pom poms but could never get them to sit on top the hat without wobbling. That button is the perfect solution. Also, from personal experience, I've noticed that faux fur doesn't wash well or can't be washed. It just wrecks it. So removing the pom is the answer. Thanks
Oh my gosh this is a great idea. Up until this video I have just been permanently attaching the Pom by weaving the ends thru the stuffing of the Pom. If I didn’t do it this way the Pom would just be too wobbly on top of the hat and eventually fall off. Definitely will be trying this method on my next hat. Thank you Staci
I like this idea for regular pom poms also. If you sell your hats and someone adores your hat but isn't into poms, you could lose the sale, but if you attach the pom like this, it is easily removable and no sale is lost.
I never even thought of using a button to attach a pompom!! Brilliant idea!! Will defo be giving this a try!
Love this tip! Now off to get big buttons! Make my own yarn Pom poms, but never satisfied that they are secure and super idea since they don’t require washing!
Thank you...I've never been satisfied either that they were really secure! :)
BUTTON for stability?! Amazing!!!!❤
This is such an awesome idea! I did this today with a hat that needed a pom pom and I think it's my new go-to way to attach pom poms. Thanks!
Brilliant! I never would have thought of a button! Your videos are so informative. Thank You - Thank You !
I do something similar... I use my yarn tail to sew a botton on (I look for fun buttons about 3/4"-1" on clearance) and use a crochet hook to pull the elastic look through and around the button. All of the poms I have purchased have small elastic loops, so this works great.
This is amazing; I never thought of this way! Good to use the button for stability and washability. Thanks!
Love it! Thank you Staci 🤗🧶
Great idea! No more wobbly Poms! Thank you!
Thank you Stacy. This is excellent and exactly what I was looking for after an exhaustive video search. Blessings to you and your family this holiday season!
Genius...I just sewing on my faux fur pom pom yesterday why didn't I see this video first?
Wow! Brilliant! I love it as it is easy, makes super sense and now I can attach my pom poms on two different hats I just made. Thank you again for a wonderful process!
Awesome Advice! It's so easy, too!
omg this is genius!! I’m constantly in awe of your smarts, staci!
Thank you for all of your tutorials! This is genius!!!
Ooh, that’s a nice simple idea!
I would think we can use this same technique with yarn Poms as well. Thanks for the tip, Staci! ♡
I'm going to try as my poms are always so wobbly. Hopefully this might steady them a bit? :)
Kathy Tincler I am sure it will!
Linnea McCormack - I wondered that about yarn ones as well. I just put yarn pom pom on several hats I just made but they're pretty secure. I had used a button on the back of a kitchen hanging towel I knitted, to secure the button on the front and it worked very well. So I'm sure it would work on at hat too.
Thank you, I’ve been thinking about how to do this for quite a while. Now I know exactly what to do!
Great idea to make them removable!! As always, great tutorial....thank you!!
Great and timely idea! Look forwarding to 2018 full of ideas and creative solutions! Thanks!
Your work is beautiful. Genious idea!
Genius! Now I need to make a hat!
Now that’s a game changer, brilliant idea!
I really want to thank you for sharing the pattern, technique, and Etsy shop on your website. Your technique is genius (why am I surprised? :) Happy New Year!
Where did you find the pattern?
I have not been successful.
Lorraine Dupont it’s on ravelry. If you go to Averypink.com she lists the link directly to it.
Awesome idea!
Thank you, what a great idea😊😊
I use an easier way to attach them, I use a snap button, attaching one part to the bombom and the other part to the center of the hat, and I enjoy changing bombom color
Very clever thank you for your amazing techniques
Thank for another great tutorial.
Thank you so much. Be blessed
I wonder if a cord toggle, instead of a button will work. I'm thinking it may help to ensure the cord doesn't loosen as a tied bow might. On the flip side, it may not feel very comfortable.
Yes, this is exactly the tutorial I needed! Thank you!!
Yes i like them so much. Thanks
Four cords? Should we be doubling up on our real Pom poms when we make them? I’m always afraid mine will eventually fall apart. Genius idea with the button, thank you. ❤️
This is such a great idea!
That's such a great idea! Thank you very much! and Happy New Year! :D
Thank you for the crystal clear instructions Stacy! You mentioned the hat pattern -where do I find that please?
All of the info about everything you see in the video (or any of my videos) is in the video description field below the video, and on my website. Here is the direct link to my website: verypink.com/2018/01/03/attaching-faux-fur-pompoms-hats/
You are genius !! Thanks
Thank you!! Brilliant!
Thank you!
What a neat idea!
Love this,great vido, love your work,thank you for sharing😊
GREAT video!!!
Thank you for the great tip. Something that I may also use on reg. pom pom hats.
I love it! What would you suggest for a beanie for cancer patients? TIA!
So clever👏🏻😍
Brilliant idea!
Love your videos!
Very helpful.. Thank you!
What is the best or most prefered faux fur pom pom? I've never used them but would like to make a few hats with them. And when I was looking to buy some I noticed some have buttons and are detatchable.. I feel like those would be nice in case the yarn and the fur pom pom have different washing instructions.
In this video, I demonstrate how to attach a pompom so that it can be easily removed when you wash the hat, please watch the video. I give a link to the Etsy shop where I get my poms in the video description field, just below the video.
Mine has a small loop.
Genius! ☺
Being an animal lover and animal lover lover, I do not support even faux fur ornamentation because it suggests the use of animal fur frivolously, however subtly the association isn't a nice one, way down deep in our psyche where we are all so humane.. Anyway I think this is a wonderful fabulous and very clever tip and will use it with regular pompoms a lot. Thank you so much, and also for so loving and being devoted to your dog babies. I admire you in so many ways.
BarbaraL Lowell Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
yes but on a deeper level which I am writing about, using faux fur implies its ok to raise and kill animals to decorate ourselves with ... faux fur still has the subliminal history of all that, I know very sensitive subject but someone has to call attention to it for consideration; fake seal fur or real seal fur still has the same connotation ... sorry i do not mean to offend, such raise awareness of subtleties.
BarbaraL Lowell I understand where you are coming from & I hope no one is offended by your comment...I am not. Haters need to go away & we all need to grow up!. The reason I don't mind the fake stuff is because I thought for a large part it just isn't cool....not acceptable by the majority to use the real deal any more. I know it's naïve to think that the whole world is on board with that but I thought that now days ppl just don't go along with any of that much :)
I see it just the opposite, wearing fake fur honors the animal. See I didn’t have to kill an animal to keep warm or look cute.
thank you for taking the time to respond ... i'm not sure that many people don't think its fur, but nevertheless I said my piece on behalf of actual slain animals ... Peace to all, even those who still use it freely. We all have to start somewhere.
Thank you!
