This tutorial will teach you how to Needle Felt Long Fur. (this is part 3 in my series of Needle Felted Cat Head tutorials as demonstrated with a Tabby Birman cat!)

I'll show you techniques of how to blend wool colours, plant(attach) long fur to your cat head, layer the wool pieces, reverse felt wool in some areas (for blending, gradients and fluffy fur), create tabby marking patterns and trim wool. All for making realistic cat fur!

What colour is the fur on the cat you are making? please let me know in the comments - I'd love to know.

I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
