In Xcode 8.2:

1. Click on your project name in the left column
2. Click "New File" and choose "Playground"

4. Possibly do a build and run to get rid of the error if it temporarily can't find the pod
5. That's it! You should be good to go

As of:

Xcode 8.2

You no longer need to add your pod folder into resources, simply use it as you would in the project.

Thanks to Eric Aya, I have found a solution based on his first suggestion.

In order to add a CocoPods framework to Playground, follow these steps:

1. Add pods to your pod file and hit pod install

4. Click on the + for Add Files to Sources
5. Add you pod folder, in our case HanakeSwift
6. Import your project pods framework import Pods_PodsPlayground
7. Build and access your framework!
