- Working with fur yarn takes patience, but it is also very forgiving. It can hide small imperfections. Push the fur to the side or the back to locate the stitches. Make sure to count your stitches as you work.
- If you are new to cables I highly recommend watching https://youtu.be/6b1DenTB1sc from Tamara Kelly of Moogly.
