    I'm an absolute beginner and started with plush/velvet yarn. My first project was the dinosaur from your video and it turned out great! 💞

    Honestly, this is very useful. I genuinely use what works for me (I'm very texture sensitive), and what's available. I've found that I will be going to singular ones for certain projects. I will, however, make tester plushies to see what works best, then stick with that one. Thank you for this though! It's definitely something I'll be keeping on mind when I go shopping for yarn

    I love the look of plush/velvet yarn, but I find it difficult to stuff bigger projects

    Most tutorials say you should try a smaller hook than recommended

    I bought the Lion Brand 24/7 cotton, and it looks really good! It says to use a G-6 (4 mm) hook, but I played around with it and ended up using a 2.75 mm hook for my project. The yarn is mercerized so it has sheen to it.
