by 14 Comments

pompLiven up your scarf-making.  Embellish your hats.  Or simply relax and sink yourself into a down-like pillow.  All this is possible when you are creating with the newest novelty yarn from Red Heart®, Pomp a Doodle™.  

This new fun and unique yarn features fluffy pom-poms strung together by twisted yarn cording.  Using US size 9 (5.5mm) knitting needles or an I-9 (5.5 mm) crochet hook, the pom-poms stitch together to create a soft, cushy fabric that is not only a pleasure to make but even more fun to wear and share with others.  Mix Pomp a Doodle™ with other yarns for even more fun.

The new Red Heart® Pomp a Doodle™ comes in 7 color combinations including Plush Plum featuring purples and magentas; Berries and Cream with pinks, roses and reds; Faded Jeans offering various shades of denim-like blues; Prairie has brown tones and neutrals; Shoreline with serene aqua’s, greens and teals; African Violet, a green and purple blend; and Night and Day featuring a black and white combination.

A single 3.5 oz ball makes one scarf.  The pattern is included inside the skein band.  This size 6 super bulky yarn is super fast and fun to work up.

  1. Love the Pomp A Doodle! My scarf is done…well almost…how do I cast off with this stuff?

    Carrie:)

  4. I have completed knitting my Pomp a Doodle scarf. However I do not know how to cast off. I viewed the above you tube link 3 times and do not see the cast off, only the cast on. Could you please help?

  5. I just finished doing scarf in night and day pomp a doodle. Love the plush feel of this scarf, but it said one skein, I had to use almost two skeins to get it to length that was usable. one skein did not make it 36 inches like it said even though I used correct needles.

  7. This video is no longer available because the uploader has closed their YouTube account.

  8. I’d like to match with a solid color my 2 Pomp-a-Doodle yarns-Cotton Candy and Berries and Cream.
    4 Ply yarn,I’d guess.Any suggestins or a site to go to?

  9. I’m excited to have the scarf pattern and am looking to do a child’s hat,too.

Christmas Stocking Knitting Patterns for Your Pets

I’ve shared a lot of Christmas stocking knitting patterns over the years (see posts 1, 2, 3 for example) but what if you want to knit a stocking for a non-human member of your family. If you’re looking for Christmas stocking knitting patterns for your cats or dogs, this is the post for you.

These large paw print stockings are perfect for either dogs or cats, so they’re great to knit if you have both. They are worked in the round using DK weight yarn, and the stocking measures about 17 inches/43 cm from the top to the heel. You can get the pattern from nicolaluke.

The K4 Project has a super cute Kitty Christmas stocking pattern, which is worked in worsted weight yarn. They also have a dog version, or you can buy both and get a discount if you have both dogs and cats to knit for. Both projects have two patterns, showing how to work the stockings flat or in the round.

Put your dog into a Christmas scene with this stocking pattern from ifanhourChild. It shows a dog in a dog house in the snow, and has room for the dog’s name at the top. It’s worked flat using worsted weight yarn and the pattern includes charts for many small and medium dog breeds (there’s a separate listing for bigger dogs) so you can stitch a dog that looks like yours.

Annie’s Woolens has both dog and cat stocking knitting patterns that are worked in worsted weight yarn in the round. You can change up the colors to suit your pet if you want, and they come with an alphabet chart for personalization. Or you can stick with holiday colors and buy a kit to make the dog or cat stocking.

Waiting for Santa Paws is a pattern from Kate Agner on Ravelry that would be cute for a dog or a cat. It looks like a leg with a paw print on the bottom part of the foot and more paw prints running around the top of the leg. This is a great option if you don’t want to mess with a heel turn because it doesn’t have a heel, because dogs and cats don’t have heels so why would their stockings?
