Questions on Faux Fur

[newfiegal]

I want to make some Pom Poms for my crochet hats. Any ideas of what type of faux fur is the best to use?

I've seen them, but never made one. They look really cute! I googled "make a pom pom out of faux fur." It looks like any faux fur fabric would work. Here's a tutorial...

That is interesting! I would have thought (for some reason) that they would be more complicated to make. that  seems easier to me than making one out of yarn.  the fur pompoms are really cute too.

Notice how long the fur is, and how the fur is darker at the ends.  I wanted to make one of those last year when they were so popular, but couldn't find any faux fur fabric anywhere near that length, only about 1 to 1.5" or so, so I'm not sure it would look as nice (didn't try it tho).  Hope you have better luck (granted, I was looking in stores and not online).
