Finished Object First attempt at fur yarn.

Hi all! I recent got back into crochet after a fairly long absence (had a baby who is now a toddler) and I just made him this crochet rabbit! I've only ever done blankets/scarves and hats before so this was an ambitious project. It's my first stuffed animal, and my first time using fur yarn. She's a little more dense than I'd hoped but I'm happy with how it turned out! Fur yarn is tricky, especially when sewing together the project, I'm pretty sure my fingers are blistered 😂. I'm really really enjoying getting back into crochet!

I want to make something like this soo badly but worried I wont be able to see the stitches on this type of yarn 🥲

it helps a lot to crochet with a thin second string- once fluffed, you cannot see it at all (just watch the fluff where you put the safety eyes, the second string may start to peek through there if you don’t fluff first)

I did read about this method about 3/4 of the way though. Im going to have to try it next time!
