Hiiiii! So two users would like help making a yarn tail, and I happen to be very ✨ skilled ✨ in this area of craftsmanship >:3 i need to find the tutorial I made, so I’ll upload images sometime tomorrow or Tuesday, but here’s the rundown!
What you need:
acrylic yarn (aka the big yarn, normal will work too just not as well) scissors thin yarn a pet brush preferably, but a normal hairbrush will work fine as well. a thing to clip it (like a lobster clasp, 2 hair clips, etc.)
Step one!
take the thin yarn and cut a piece about as long as your forearm. (If you want an extra short or long tail, measure the length you want and add a few inches, you’ll need them.) cut the yarn and move on to step two.
Step two!
take your acrylic yarn and wrap it around your fingers about 10-15 times, then cut the yarn between your middle and ring fingers but only the front half, not all the way through or you’ll cut it into two piles.
Step three!
Tie one of these new short strings (the middle of the string) to the bottom of the long string you made, using a double knot. After this, tie the rest one at a time with a regular knot and slide down to the first small strand. Every three or so strands, brush it out with the brush, you will get a lot of fluff leftover which you can use as stuffing or add to stuff or whatever I don’t really know lol if/when you run out of strands, repeat step two
Step four!
once all the strands are tied, get your clip (I’ll use a lobster clasp in this example, if you don’t have one of those then google other options I haven’t used them so I don’t know very well) and tie it securely to the end of the base strand, then make sure it’s knotted right and cut off anything you have leftover. :]
Extras:
to alternate colors, switch the color of yarn every time you do step 2 again, or just whenever you want.
you can add little decorations near the clip if you want to, just tie them to the extra string at the top.
nub tails are virtually the same, but you only have to do step 2 once or less than that. :3
Like I said, I’m not done yet, and I’ll add pictures soon, but feel free to ask about anything you’re confused about!
