What are these balls of wool bound together with a rubber band? I am trying to look up what these are, to no avail:



Note: this was the closest thing I could find

They are balls of wool, cut into small pieces, with a rubber band stuck in the middle holding it together.

The closest thing I could describe them as is "fuzz ball", but that's too general. I'm trying to create one. I need to search a tutorial for it but that is difficult when I am not sure what this is.
These are just pom poms on elastic  bands. Those particular ones appear to be made from rabbit fur. That is, according to the less that useful description given from the site where this image came from.

The ones pictured are used as decoration or as an accessory. 

Coincidentally we had another user ask about how to make those recently. Have a look at the answers to this question and you should get an idea of what to do. The only thing that is different is the presence of the elastic band. If you do want that it would just be a matter of attaching that into the pom pom as it is being created.
