4. Pompom Russian Dolls

Pompom Russian Dolls This Matryoshka doll looks quite impish, I love it. This is a fun and easy project for those who work a lot with yarn. A specific pompom-making tool was used here but you can also do this by hand. To give your nesting dolls different colors, you will need to wrap several hues of yarn around your fingers. To showcase the neck area, you will need to tie a piece of yarn around it. Glue goggle eyes and you're done.
