3. Sewing Tips: How to Master "Furry" Materials

Sewing faux fur has its secrets that ensure a professional-looking result:

• Cutting: Never use standard scissors across the entire material! Cut only the backing fabric from the reverse side using a rotary cutter or a sharp utility knife. This prevents cutting the fur fibers and avoids unnecessary mess.

• Pile Direction: Before cutting, check the direction of the pile (it should always point downwards). Cut all pieces in the same direction.

• Tucking the Fur: When sewing two pieces together, tuck the long fur hairs inward (between the right sides) so they don't get caught in the seam. After sewing, you can gently pull any trapped hairs out of the seam with a needle.

4. Care: Keeping the Fur Fluffy

• Washing: We recommend gentle hand washing or a machine wash on a delicate cycle at 30°C. Do not use fabric softener, as it can cause the fibers to stick together.

• Drying: Never put faux fur in the dryer and do not wash at high temperatures. Air-dry the fur by laying it flat.

• Brushing: After drying, you can gently brush the fur with a soft-bristled brush to restore its volume and shine.

• Ironing: Strictly prohibited! High temperatures could irremediably damage (melt) the synthetic fibers.
