[@kayceegreer4418]

I am actually liking that pop of red yarn as a pleasant surprise when you see it but I can see that using a guideline in one of the other soft colors there would be much preferred

[@Jammn126]

I started a pillow cover with this type of yarn. I got several inches done and couldn’t really see the stitches well and the sides started looking wonky so I didn’t finish it. With the method you are showing, I think I can do it now! Thank you, Robin. Your tutorials are the best! 😍🧶

[@munkustrap2]

I've been crocheting for 50 years &, even though I love the looks of finished projects, I've been avoiding this yarn like the plague because of the aggravation of working with it after making a pom pom on a gnome's hat on an afghan. I think now, thanks to you, I'm going to give making an afghan out of it a try...when I can afford the yarn that is.

[@MargaretUK]

Wouldn't that make a lovely trim for a crochet hat 😍 Thank you Robin 😊

[@HookedbyRobin]

It would!😃

[@Pammy_Yolo]

Yes it does! ❤️

[@donna3967]

Certainly makes a beautiful and tactile edging for blankets 😊

[@missangie1562]

I remember the first time I used faux yarn I had to restart my project like 50 times then I did the absolute tedious thing and started stitch marking every single stitch until I got the hang of it. It was a big pain in my ass but it made me learn quickly because I was getting annoyed with using 100 stitch markers. I ran out of stitch markers at one point and was using safety pins bobby pins binder clips anything that helped me see where my stitches were. Good times. Now I know how to feel for them or use a guide yarn which is usually my first choice. Thanks for the amazing video with equally amazing advice ❤❤

[@sherylb9670]

It makes fabulous cuffs and collars

[@HookedbyRobin]

Yes!

[@SuryaKumariDuddu]

Yes especially for children

[@sewlouisa]

Oh yes, absolute luxury. Could imagine it on the brim of a hat.

Very informative. I just finished a project, a small one. I wish I had seen your video first. I had to feel my way through the project. ☮️🌎🌲

[@wizbet68]

You are my absolute crochet hero! I bought a mystery bag from lion brand as a gift to myself for the holidays three years ago. In it were 3 skeins of faux fur yarn, which initially I was excited for. Then realizing I already have a hard time working with black yarn, I wondered to myself how on earth I was going to be able to use the faux fur. It has been sitting in its original package since. Thanks to you I can actually attempt to use it for homemade Christmas stockings!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you, Robin!! 🙏🏼❤🦸🏻‍♀

[@HookedbyRobin]

I’m so pleased it will help!😃🧶

[@christineatkinson4030]

I bought some Himalaya Koala yarn a while ago and couldn't crochet with it but since watching this video and you saying to use 4 ply yarn when doing the chain stitches and then feeling the gaps for the rest I am now in the process of making a scarf so thank you for this tutorial for faux fur yarn, my scarf is looking and feeling so nice.

[@diopaleeo]

holy crap this is the video i didn’t even know i needed! i have faux fur yarn left over from adding fluffy bits to crochet toys. i’d just accepted that i’d not be able to use it for a blanket cause it was too hard. omg THANK YOU! 🩵🩵xx

[@HookedbyRobin]

I’m glad it helps!😃

[@disneydianne1716]

Looks pretty but would drive me nuts trying to make it! You are very patient!

Better you than me! My daughter made a red neck scarf for my Mom from this type hairy stuff! It was for her purple/red getup for Red Hat ladies meetings! Lol. No idea how she managed to finish it, but it looked great!

[@MariaMales-k6b]

Robin, I wish I had the patience to do this lovely blanket, I can almost feel the comfort and luxury of the yarn. Alas, it will drive me mad, I felt my brain melting while watching you crochet 😂😂 can I buy yours please 😂😂 I have just started a blanket for my foster granddaughter using the last stitch you demonstrated. I love this blanket you are demonstrating now , I shall add it to my stitch Library, many thanks 🌷🧶🌷 Maria

[@gautamiambiye9444]

You make it look so easily doable and I can actually feel the softness of the fur, so am sorely tempted to give it a try. The heart is willing enough, but my brain tells me to steer clear of the yarn because I won't have the patience to get through the project. 😢 Maybe at some future date I will have the courage to give it a try. Thanks for another great video!❤

[@aadilavally4702]

Wow Robyn thank you for a great video. Love your tutorials. But this 1 brings me into my own. Being a blind crocheter is a total advantage here. I do not need the guide yarn as I feel everything any way smile. Fo fur yarn is a breez smileK out

[@HookedbyRobin]

Yes absolutely! It would be super simple!

Thank you so much for this. I'm hoping to add a faux fur trim to a cardigan but was put off by how challenging it seemed. I find it hard enough to crochet with black yarn, let alone anything fluffy. You've given me hope that with a little practice, I could do it. Your tutorials are brilliant.

[@HookedbyRobin]

[@grannym2880]

Omg, I spent a small fortune on a bunch of this yarn, only to get frustrated and ended up giving up and giving it away. Wish I knew this method back then. On the plus side though, being spring/summer in Australia, it's way too warm to work with right now. I'll have time to save up for a new stash ready for next winter. 😉

Thanks for this video. The faux fur surely looks (and likely feels) nice. Still, I would rather go to other yarn choices before crocheting with this faux fur. I feel the same with the velvety yarn 😬 With the tips you showed us maybe I should give it a try again 🤔

In a blanket or throw blanket for my son’s girlfriend is it in the black colour you have I actually already started it and I found it hard to do chain stitches and feel the stitches so I’ve just told her she has to buy some black yarn or light grey so I can see it .. thanks for your great tips

[@wendijackson8844]

Please share what yarn you're using for the sample. My daughter would go crazy for a throw made from that!❤

[@HookedbyRobin]

My blanket (the brown) is Sirdar Alpine in the shade "Brindle" and the coloured one is Scheepjes Furry Tales in the shade "Unicorn" 😀

[@PKlovesDW]

Legitimately thinking about maybe frogging my entire project up until now, and using this method... I had never chrochet before, and obviously just HAD to use this yarn... Only to end up really, REALLY frustrated in the beginning. Found a way to make it work (somehow), but this just seems... way easier, and faster...? My blanket is big as well, 150 cm by 120 cm, already somehwere between 20-30 cm along (on the 150 cm side, lol), soooo... really doubting whether or not I should just restart, lol

[@PKlovesDW]

Okay, maybe I shouldn't be doing something so drastic quite yet... I guess I'll make a test like this as well, and see which one works better! If this is faster and easier, I'll frog it, and use this method!

[@SuryaKumariDuddu]

Very lovely can we call it brailee pattern

[@TheCatlady63]

I have used the faux fur when knitting Teddies years ago. I used a thinner yarn to work along with the faux fur and it worked well. Where did you buy this yarn ( the brown) ?

Are there some brands you recommend for faux fur yarns? Some of these chenille types of yarn have a reputation for falling apart or shedding excessively.

I only knit with such yarns, because it's easier to see the stitches and knitting also uses less yarn than crocheting.
