I will show you one of the techniques how to crochet with fluffy yarn. You will need to use cotton yarn of similar colour.

Work with cotton yarn alone (Yarnart  Begonia)

1. Crochet 6 sc in a Magic Ring

2. 6 sc

3. 6 inc = 12 sc

From Round 2 join in your fluffy yarn (Fluffy «VITA fancy»). Work anticlockwise and with cotton yarn alone. Fluffy yarn stays behind the work at all times in line with the direction of your crochet. Press it tight with your index finger to keep in place. With cotton yarn hook though the stitch of Round 1 and wrap it around your fluffy yarn, pull it back through the loop and finish your sc off. See the pictures for guidance. Continue all the following scs using this technique. Thus you will get a ‘bald’ part on one side and fluffy on the reverse side.

7. (1 inc, 2 sc) х 6 = 24 sc

8, 9. 24 sc

10. (1 inc, 3 sc) х 6 = 30 sc

11. 30 sc

12. (1 inc, 4 sc) х 6 =36 sc

13. 36 sc

14. (1 inc, 5 sc) х 6 =42 sc

15. 42 sc

16. (1 inc, 6 sc) х 6 =48 sc

17. (1 inc, 7 sc) х 6 =54 sc

18. 54 sc

19. (1 inc, 8 sc) х 6 =60 sc

20. (1 inc, 9 sc) х 6 =66 sc

21, 22. 66 sc

Fold in half, work 33 sc hooking through the loops on both sides. Bind off for Ear 1. Do not cut off yarn for Ear 2. You will need it a bit later.

Make sure the fluffy yarn goes behind the work in the following row. Thus when turning your work, one side will always stay “bald” whereas the other side will be fluffy.

5. 1 dec, 10 sc, 1 dec = 12, ch 1, turn work

6. 1 dec, 8 sc, 1 dec = 10, ch 1, turn work

7. 1 dec, 6 sc, 1 dec = 8, ch 1, turn work

8. 1 dec, 4 sc, 1 dec = 6, ch 1, turn work

9. 1 dec, 2 sc, 1 dec = 4, ch 1, turn work

10. 4 sc, ch 1, turn work

11. 2 dec, ch 1, turn work

12. 2 sc

Bind off. Leave a small piece of thread for further sewing.

Make a strip: (orange – red colour)

Ch 71.

1. Starting from the 2nd ch from hook, crochet 70 sc, ch 1, turn work

2 – 13. 60 sc, ch 1, turn work

Ensure one side of the strip stays “bald” and the other is fluffy.

The strip I made is 2cm wide. You should measure your headband and make the strip as wide as necessary.

Place the fox ears over the upper part of the headband, wrap the strip around the headband as shown and join the ends with some dressmaking pins. Sew the ends together.

You may brush the ears to make them fluffier.  If you use same brand black yarn as me, then you may want to trim the ends with scissors.

Your fox ears are now completed!
