Has anyone ever used this type of fur? (a kind of yarn) how hard is it to work with? I can do simple knitting and crochet, but have not done any far a long time. Thanks for any help.

Hello jenne, use the right knitting needles and off you go. The yarn is great for scarfs or caps and simple patterns. I don`t use patterns in the knit because it gets lost and counting the rows or stitches is really hard with this furry stuff. It is good for relaxing because I dont have to to think or watch my hands. Instead I watch a movie. Have fun and Merry Christmas from

I am not a big knitter but did knit a scarf in this stuff and it was not hard at all. Happy knitting

Knitting with this should not cause any problems and I would recommend that over crochet.

Yes I have used this yarn, easy to do with the right needles. You can't really see a design so I should knit it plain, I have made blankets and scarfs for charity. Knits really quick with large needles, on the first and last rows I used wool with this yarn to make it a little stronger. Good luck. Sandra.

That's a great idea about using the wool at the beginning and end. Love Chris

I've seen some lovely jackets knitted with one strand of this eyelash yarn and one of ordinary yard. It can make a great fabric.

I've used it for dolls hair. Knit a simple "hat" and stitch it on like a wig!

Hi, I'm knitting a teddy bear with this kind of yarn at the moment, knitted on a 4 and half mm knitting needle. As they say it knits up quickly and lovely and soft. Hugs Maureen
