Cheeto puff!
This is one of the best tutorials I’ve found!! Currently working on a fox tail- Not it being 1 AM but shoooosshhh- No one will know >:3 Gonna wear it to school tomorrow morning-
Thank you so much!!!! 🤍 I’m glad it was able to help ya!!! And lol no worries I won’t tell anyone ;). Enjoy your tail!!! 🤍🤍
Hello! Im a therian and Ive been looking for a tail, but like cruel fur farms exist so I was to nervous to buy one off a website.. thanks! ❤
Of course!! I’m happy this was able to help you :). Making it yourself has the added benefit of making it exactly how you want it to look too 🤍
Hi therian I’m also one :)
Hi im also a therian!
I too, think im a therian (not sure yet)
Wow, therian meet up! Lolz
This was super helpful :D, I’m making a tail for a Roxanne wolf cosplay also for like scene kid reasons lol
A Roxy tail will be cool!! And I’m so glad this was able to help ya out 🤍
Omg same!!!!
Ima fnaf fan too !
Making these as a keychain for the side of my pants and purse (so when im alone i can wear it normally, but pass it off as just a keychain if i wear it on the side in public)
Anyways i have made one before but i had to throw it away but here are some tips i learned
If its not fluffy enough try spraying it with water then hair dry it roughly
Flattening ironing it will make it super soft n fluffy as well just dont use red heart yarn for that
You can dye it with hair dye or make your own natural dye and stain it, i only have colorful yarn so its what im doing
Thanks for all the tips!! And you’re really smart wearing it as a keychain while out so you still have it 🤍
THE KEYCHAIN THING IS WHAT I DO OMGOGMOGM LOL I THOUGHT I WAS SO SMART
Girl the first tail you made was perfect and I'm 9 years old
That means a lot!! Thank you 🤍
I recommend a thicker core for a thicker or more puffy tail!
Don’t wanna go too thick though. Or it won’t move right lol :). But I’ll try going a little more next time :) thank you!!
HOW COME I DIDNT SEE THIS MASTERPIECE BEFORE?!?!.. CZcams WHY WONT YOU SHOW ME THE MASTEEPIECESSSSS!!!!!
Thank you!! That means so much🤍 Very glad you enjoyed the video!!
@@katiecassidy94Your welcome :]
I like your first one!!!! You have to start somewhere!!
Lol it was the start… not great… but did learn stuff from it :) that’s for sure.
I braided a wire into mine so it stands up, it turned out so cute, thank you!!
Smart!!! Bet it looks amazing!! And thank you so much!! 🤍🤍
You literally seem like the sweetest person ever I love your tails too 🥺 I’m gonna make a red panda tail, wish me luck!

Thanks this was really helpful as I've been making a tail by making bundles brushing ghem out then sewing them on and it takes awhile but I'm going to try this way to see if it's quicker! ❤❤
You’re welcome!!! I’m glad to be able to help!! For me this way was sooo much faster!! Hope it works well for u :)!! 🤍
Hey!! I'm pulling an all nighter tonight, and I'm gonna be making this tail! Thank you so much!!!!

Thank you so much Katie 🩷 very helpful for me.
You’re very welcome!!! So happy it was able to help you!! 🤍🤍
Thank you for making this❤
You’re welcome!! Glad it helped!! 🤍🤍
I would recommend braiding some yarn as a base
Nevermind I didn't realise you braided it
No worries!! :) And the braid does work and move very well for the inside 🤍
Thank you sm!!
I love ur hair btw! :)
You’re so very welcome!!! 🤍
And thank you!! You’re so sweet!! 🤍🤍
Thanks for the tutorial as a therian i really need that and it helps to better conzentrate thx you so much ❤
I’m so happy to be able to help you!!! And thank you too 🤍🤍
This was very helpful ty!
You’re welcome!! Enjoy you’re tail!! 🤍
You eared yourself a sub! I'd love to make one!
Thank you :)!! Hope one day you get to!!🤍
Omg this is so helpful
Yay!!! I’m so happy this helped you!! 🤍🤍
Beautiful!!!
Thank you so much!!! 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 Awwh, of course!! They are absolutely stunning tails!
You’re so sweet🤍 thank u!! I’m glad you like them too!!!! :)
Hi I saw how much people you comments on!
I saw this tut and my parents won't buy me a tail. The tail I made is so cute and fluffy!!
Hello!! 🤍🤍 I’m glad you’re able to make one. It’s more fun making it yourself anyways :). Can make it exactly how you need it to be 🤍. I’m super happy to hear you’re happy with your tail!! 🤍
4:16 the softness probably doesn’t depend on skill, but on the yarn itself. Different yarn dyes can have different effects to the same yarn’s texture, and some batches of yarn just come out softer. Great tutorial by the way!
I was confused why they were both so different feeling!! lol. So that makes sense :). And thank you so much!! 🤍
I’m Gonna Speed run This tonight right before Halloween so I can wear it as a key chain with my tail I got from Amazon❤❤
Have fun!!! And Happy Halloween!! 🤍
If you get a tail from amazon, make sure its 100% faux fur, amazon tails that are real come from cruel fur farms. (Where they beat and abuse foxes then kill them for their tails and pelt)
Katie: Don’t brush it on a surface you don’t want ruined, it’ll scratch it all up
Me: *brushing it on my thigh*
😂 …… callin me out on that!!! lol. And yes…. I still brush it out on my thigh. I haven’t learned 😂🤍
@@katiecassidy94
It doesn’t hurt and it works way better :D
It’s soooo much easier!!!! And lol only hurts every so often lol
@@katiecassidy94
It doesn’t hurt me at all surprisingly, but the method works so well! I’m making a tail for my friend right now actually!!
You’re better than I am then. Impressive you’re able to not get scratched :). And that’s so sweet of you!!! I’m sure they’re gunna love it :). 🤍
That's very helpful thank you I only have blue yarn but I have 2 theriotipes.
You’re welcome!! I’m glad that this helped ya out!! 🤍 and I’m sure whatever you have to start will be amazing!! 🤍
Nice video
Thank you!!! I’m glad you enjoyed it!! 🤍
Hey I rlly love your channel and I think you are so underrated you deserve so much more then me and ty for the tutorial bc I wanted to try a different technic on how to make a tail mine are rlly fluffy but not as fluffy as yours
Hi!! And aww thank u so much!!! That means a lot 🤍 I’m glad you enjoyed!! It’s always fun to try diff ways :) 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 🤍🤍🤍 much therian love from Nora 🤍🤍🤍
What about sliding a D ring between the split in yarn before you braid the base? So it’s braided into the base and you can add a clip to that? Might even be able to replace that knotted piece for the D ring.
It will just hang a little lower when you wear it :) that’s why I prefer the knot. But it would totally work for ya!!!
@@katiecassidy94 that makes sense! I’m tempted to try but nervous on how long it’ll take. So much dedication to make one of those! Thank you for this video and your speedy replies!
It takes a few hours if you’re fast lol. But it’s worth it :). And you will need to make a few before you get a perfect one. So don’t be afraid to mess up!!! 🤍
wonderful tutorial and you seem like a lovely person :3
btw if you’re wondering the brush is called a carding brush! if you got it from a craft kit it was probably a pom pom kit? i found one like that in walmart the other day it looked similar so yep 👍
Aw thank you so much!! You are so sweet 🤍. And it was from a Pom Pom kit lol. Yeeeears ago :) It’s good to know what it’s called!! Thank you!! :) 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 ooh yay i got it right! and no problem! :D
Fellow therian :3
@@jacobs.my.twinkie fellow therian :3
You can also use a cat or dog brush.
11:38 thats really cool and it kinda reminds me of a cows tail when it isnt fluffed up
It does!! Lol. If you do different colors it could make a good lion tail too I bet :)
(Just noticed ur pic lol)
Wow that's cool I make mine similar but they are more strong because people yank them off of me so I make them so they don't break or lose fluff ❤
Thank you!! 🤍 And that’s not very nice of them to take your tail!! Good job figuring out a way to make it super strong though 🤍🤍
This is old, but thanks! Ive been wanting to know-
You’re welcome!!! I hope this helped you out!! 🤍
i mean on my oppinion i like the first one more but there all good!
Aww thank you!!!! 🤍🤍
Oof this looks hard! Hopefully I can get the hang of it
You will!!! Once ya figure it out it’s pretty easy 🤍
How do i mix two colors together like black at the base and white at the end
If you mean a different colored tail tip. Wherever you want the color to change add the different color on :) it’ll blend in just like the other color. Just make sure the braid/inside of the tail is the color you’re making the tip :) cause that’ll get brushed out too :). Hope that helps ya!!! 🤍
My mom won't buy one so I'm hoping I can make one:)
It’s more fun to make it yourself anyway!!! 🤍 that way it’ll be fully yours :). Have fun with it!!!! 🤍🤍
❤
Hi I have tried this tut and the first time I did it was good I like it but thanks fur the tutorial like I can’t buy tails so
Hi!!! 🤍 my first one wasn’t great… it takes practice that’s for sure!!! I’m glad you still like it though!! 🤍🤍
Hello ! Im a therian and an angelkin , I haven't watched all of this yet but im sure it's useful ! But what type of yarn should i use ? I wanna use wool . And use a pet brush [thats what a lot of websites say to do when making gear .]
But I'm only 11 so this might be a bit hard .
I sadly couldn't buy a tail cause my mom said it's probably from a cruel fur farm .
But I need to ask a few questions .
1# Is wool yarn safe too use when making the tail ?
2# Should I use a pet brush or a real brush . I think a pet brush will make it more fluffy!
3# And I don't have a belt so what should I use too put the tail on ? Like a key chain to connect it to clothing ?
I'm sorry if this is a lot , but like I said I haven't finished the video so ...
Hi!! Sorry I didn’t see this sooner 🤍. But no the yarn has to be acrylic. Wool wouldn’t brush out and hold any fluff. It would just fall apart too much :). And the metal pet brush or one used to brush out Pom poms (they come in those kits) is needed to be brutal and rip the yarn to get the fluff. And as for putting it on if you have a keychain that would definitely work :) u could even just use a piece of rope or ribbon as a belt, slide the top of the tail through and wrap that around your waist. Or if what you’re wearing has a belt loop you can just clip it on that with any sort of a clip :) it’s very forgiving with what ya use to put on. And don’t worry it wasn’t a lot :) I’m happy to help you!!! 🤍
just a tip all the fluff that comes off when you brush you can use as stuffing like she had said but u can also use it for masks and things like that ❤
Very smart!! Thanks for sharing that!!! 🤍
Shes underrated 😊
That means so much!! 🤍 thank you!!! 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 your welcome also this helped a lot
Yay! :) I’m happy to be able to help!! 🤍
I made a tail and a mask from SCRATCH like I used my fluffy blanket to make them and it took me FOREVER to make them and my parents don’t approve of me being a therian and they say me with my gear and told me they were gonna burn them if I keep being a therian so ya
I bet it turned out amazing!! And I’m sorry you have to deal with that…. Take it slow :) they’ll come around someday!! Just remember you’re perfect as you are 🤍
Hii what do you think you could use instead of the metal brush?
Hi!! Oh… I’m not sure…. Maybe a very strong/stiff hair comb? I don’t know though for sure. Sorry!!! It just needs to be sturdy to be able to brush out the yarn 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 thank you :P
Hey, just wondering if there are any other yarns or way to get other yarns to work? I’m hesitant to use acrylic yarn because of the environmental impact of throwing away strands of plastic. Are you aware of any way to make other yarns fluff out like acrylic, and whether or not it’d be completely impossible to make a fluffy tail with a different type of yarn?
I completely understand that🤍. I keep meaning to try other types as well :) just haven’t got them yet!! lol. But I do know cotton (I’ve tried that one) doesn’t work whatsoever. It just completely falls apart sadly. I’m most hopeful for wool to work. So that would be my first choice to try :). Or maybe alpaca yarn too. Again I haven’t tried yet. But those are the ones that miiiiiight work :). Just know cotton doesn’t at all. Hope that’s helpful for you!! 🤍🤍
hey nice video
Hi!! Thank you so much!! 🤍 you probably could tie it on. Just might be lumpy? From the little knots. But I’m not sure…. Might be worth the try!!! It would take a reeeeaaally long time one at a time though… sorry not the best answer!! 🤍🤍
don't worry! thank you so much ❤
I think you like the brushing!!!
A little bit :) it’s very enjoyable lol
walmart's redheart isnt as good as others for tails because the fibers are shorter and fall apart. its cleaner and fluffier to brush them before you attatch the tufts to the braid, that will also not let the braid get pulled through.
I’m sure there are better ones but to practice and learn with the red heart is the best price :). And thanks for the other option of brushing out!! :) Might try it one day!! :) 🤍
How about getting them from Michael's?
I’m sure they’d have some that would work!! 🤍
Thank you for sharing this awesome craft making your own tails out of yarn. Ill try make my self one yay now i wonder instead of acrylic is cotton yarn going to work the same way? Happy crafting!
When i tried brushing out the cotton yarn it all came apart.. Maybe I was just to rough with it. But the acrylic is the only one I found that didn’t totally turn to mess lol. And happy to share 🤍 have fun making your tail!! 🤍
Hello dose wool yarn work? I'm trying to looking up any info and trying to make the tail more better for natural stuff.
Haven’t tried it so I don’t know for sure. Would be super soft if it did!! But I think it’d be like cotton… let me know if u try it how it goes!!
Okay so I found another CZcamsr using wool making the tail and oh my goodness made it looks like a real animals tail! happy crafting!
That’s pretty amazing!!! Might have to give that a try then!! :) 🤍
IM THE 900TH LIKE AHHHH❤❤
Wow!!! Thats amazing!! Congrats :)!! And thank you 🤍🤍
Yayyyyyyyy! Sorry but you get one more subscription!!!
Wow 1 year ago and I still get a like
Of course!!! 🤍 I do my best to reply to everyone 🤍🤍
@@katiecassidy94 thanks 😊
Thank you too!! 🤍
❤Finally I can make atail😊😊❤
You’re gunna love it!!!!! 🤍🤍
wait so after you braid it, do you brush out the part thats not braided first?
The leftover on the bottom of the tail? Yes I brush that out first :) then I start adding the rest of the yarn. I found working from the bottom up seems to work the best. 🤍
@@katiecassidy94okay! thank you so much! i just went to walmart and got some yarn.. im so excited! thank you❤
You’re welcome!! Have fun with your tail 🤍🤍
I love this !! But did you just braid it then brush it ???
The center is braided. :) then I added cut pieces of yarn to the braid and brushed those out. Hope that helps!!! 🤍🤍
Thanks❤❤❤
You’re very welcome!! :) 🤍
my first tail looks like it got ran over yours is actually pretty good
Thank you!! I was able to fix it a bit after by adding more yarn thankfully :). And I’m sure urs looks great!!! Specially for a first try!! 🤍🤍
@@katiecassidy94 no like it is literally made of random pieces of yarn and it is missing some tufts. literally looks like it got ran over, but my second one looks alot better¯\_(ツ)_/¯(u were right the second one looks a ton better than the first) and also you make really good tails and this tutorial helped alot 💜
Ohhhh.. lol I get it now :). Well… least you’ll always know which one is you’re first!!!! :) and thank you so much. That means a lot 🤍 I’m happy to have been able to help!!! :)
I tried but as soon as I started brushing it just fell apart! TELL ME HOW TO BRUSH IT WITHOUT FALLING APART
Lol so much comes off it’s scary. So that is normal :) but if all of it is. Make sure your yarn is 100% acrylic. And the yarn isn’t too long. It’ll break at a point no matter how long the yarn piece is. So longer it is means more comes off. That was annoying to learn.. but ya sooo much will come off and it is normal :) but very scary. Good luck 🤍🤍
Do I cut off the excess on the braid
The unbraided stuff on the bottom? If that’s what you mean :) than no. You leave it and that will be the bottom of the tail. Just brush it out like the rest of the yarn you’ll put on :) 🤍🤍
@@katiecassidy94 thanks so much!!❤
Of course!! 🤍🤍 have fun making you’re tail :) 🤍
How do we put it on
You can put it on a belt loop with a carabiner clip. Or on a belt itself with the same type of clip. Or use a key ring style loop and use that to put it on :). I use the clip cause it’s easy to take on and off. And clip it on a “belt” literally just a piece of rope I tie around my waist. Lol. Hope that helps ya!!!
Im also a therian and ya you need a lot of yarn to make it really fuzzy
I was so amazed at how much it needed!! But worth it for how fluffy it is 🤍🤍
Ove been looking at this video for the past year, i still cant figure out how to make the yarn look like that-
That’s so frustrating!!! I’m sorry.. Sometimes it can be any reason. The brand of yarn or even just the different colors can make a huge difference in how in brushes out. I hope you’re able to get it to work soon!! Good luck 🤍🤍
Starts right here!! 8:20
People if u have left over floof just use it for your mask if u have one ❤
Smart!!! I used mine as stuffing for plushies lol
uh, if i have no brush what should i do?
I’m honestly not sure….. could try a small hair comb? It might not be strong enough and it may break though.. I’m sorry!!! Wish I had a better answer for you. 🤍🤍
@@katiecassidy94 its ok, ill give it a shot!
Good luck!!!!!🤍
Can you wash these? What will happen if you do?
I would just spot clean with a damp towel if needed. If they get fully washed it probably won’t be fluffy anymore :).
@@katiecassidy94 thank you
i got 30 bucks from selling 3 of these thanks!
That’s amazing!!!! Congrats 🤍!! You’re so very welcome:) 🤍
thanks its not _as_ hard as i thought
Of course!! And it just takes some practice :) once ya get it it’s really easy (and satisfying) 🤍
Thanku
Hi
lol hello!!! :) you’re welcome!! 🤍
I’m working on a fur suit head!
That’s a big project!! Sounds like fun!! 🤍
the way I groansed when I realised my yarn is full polyester
It’s always annoying when u don’t have what u need… The good news is u have a reason to go yarn shopping soon!! 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 Yess!!
:)
Thanks, me and my datefriend are using the same exact yarn. We plan to spend 6 hours to get it mostly done. Is that enough time? :)
[the same type and brand from walmart]
It shooould be enough time. It really depends on how fast you are at the brushing :). But you guys should be able to get it totally done all in one go in 6 hours!! :) 🤍
Omg I want the first one send it to meeeee
Awww!! That is so sweet!! I’m glad you like it so much🤍🤍. I’m sure one you make tho will be even better!!!! 🤍
as a therian abd a furry , this is helpfull
and
I’m so glad this helped you!! 🤍🤍
Can this Brand Of Yarn “CARON “ From Michaels Work?? Edit:Thanks
As long as it’s acrylic you should be good!!! 🤍
Thank You!!
i only made one tail but the others i bought
Congrats on making your first tail to add to your collection!!! 🤍
Me being too lazy to do tails😻💞
lol they do take a lot!!! 🤍
Dont worry abouthow long the video is. I really needed an in depth how to + tips
Thank you so much!!!! 🤍🤍 I’m glad it helped you!! 🤍
@@katiecassidy94oh im re watching the video and I think I know where that brush is from! Have you ever tried to felt or do crafts with wool? They use those to mix two different colors so you can make new shades / colors
I’ve tried doing felt crafts but didn’t have much luck… lol. Want to learn how to though!!!
“Itmight take a few days or a week” thank goodness, I have ten days
You’ll get it in time!!! Takes me longer cause I stop and come back a lot :) 🤍🤍
Any Queensland therians here ;0
Not quite but Perth therian here! :)
I'm pretty sure an H hook is 5mm, for those that don't really know the letter sizing like me I just looked thru all my hooks until I found it lol
I have no idea what they stand for!! lol. Thank you for the info!! :) 🤍
@katiecassidy94 lol me either, the letters always felt so random so I ise the millimeter system when I crochet haha
Glad I could help! 😊
I’m trying to make a yarn tail and I can’t do it❤
It take practice. My first attempt was real rough lol. Learned from the mistakes… and tried again and was waaaay better!!! So don’t give up 🤍 you’ll get it 🤍
Thanks
I’m doing well now:)I will try my best to
Yay!! And your best is perfect 🤍
I made a red tail
Congrats!!! I bet it’s super pretty 🤍🤍
Im a therian who’s nine and I’m so scared to ask my paresnts to buy one and they don’t sell those here but the do sell fur that’s fake but my parents will ask why I buy it and I have yarn that I use for crochet but I tried to make one of these with my sisters but it failed so I hope this one works and by the way ur voice is amazing and ur so pretty
Good luck making your tails!! You’ll get it. Takes practice. And aww thank you!! You’re so sweet!! 🤍🤍
Your welcome for the brush I can’t find my dogs brush 😭
So I’m using the metal wround brush will it work?
If it’s kinda sharp (like not the plastic tipped ends) it should work just fine!! It needs to be sturdy enough to get the yarn fibers loose :)
Okayyyy I might wear this tail to school I had a sock one before some girl was like why u wearing a sock on ur bum 😭
I got it done in 30 mins
Good job!! That’s really impressive!!! 🤍
brooo idk how to braid
this was to hard
It’s tricky to learn :) but once figured out it makes sense!! 🤍 Hope you’ve been having fun with it at least!! 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 i gave up after the knee part😭😭 ill try again tmrw though!!:3
@jaebaeee25 sometimes it really is best to leave and come back. It can be really frustrating when it doesn’t go easily :). Take as many breaks and as long as you need!!! You’ll get it eventually 🤍
@@katiecassidy94 thanks :) 💕
