Hi everyone, today I have something special that I made that I won't ever make again!
This is a hand-tied yarn tail made out of a little over 5 skeins of painstakingly hand-placed yarn.
The start price reflects the very basic amount I'd like to get to cover materials and a tiny fraction of my time.

The fur is handmade from yarn! I made this tail a little over 3 years ago and I really enjoyed it in the time I had it it, but I realize that I just don't wear a tail to events as much as I did in the past. So I find this getting left at home more and more, and it is a tragedy for this wonderful piece of handcraft to not get out and enjoyed.

This type of tail is different from any faux fur tail made from fabric. It has a weight to it, and is ultra flexible, as a result it is VERY waggy and has the most realistic movement that any style of tail short of an actual taxidermy tail can offer. It has a braided "spine" and each fur bundle is knotted and sewn to it. This offers wondrous flexibility.

Here are two quick videos of the movement:

Maintenance is similar to a faux fur tail. It does require combing, because if left ungroomed its looks will not have as much of an impact. If any fibers need re-straightening you can use a hair flat iron to smooth them back to their original sheen.

This was made of two tones of grey made to have a lighter underside and it is tipped in white. The grey yarns carefully selected on this project match fairly and compliment well to the "luxury shag" faux fur.

Currently the loop at the top is a simple D-ring. Please inform me at auction's end if you would like a certain type of belt loop added (elastic, nylon) otherwise it will be delivered as-is.
