Furever faux fur yarn: plush SuperBulky for cozy knits
Aktie
Sometimes you want to knit something that looks incredibly luxurious without putting in hours of detailed work. That is exactly what a quality faux fur yarn is for, and Furever delivers that cozy, plush finish in every stitch.
Because Furever is 100% polyester, it sidesteps the itch factor entirely, making it a comfortable choice if you or someone you are knitting for has a sensitivity to wool or natural fibers. You can knit it up into a scarf that sits right against the neck all day without any irritation. That said, care instructions are not printed on this yarn, so hand washing in cool water and laying flat to dry is the safest approach until you test a swatch.
At SuperBulky weight, Furever works up fast on 9mm needles, and the 3-ball pack (300gr and around 180 meters total) gives you just enough for a full-length scarf or a generous cowl in a single sitting. If you already enjoy working with textured polyester yarns, Long Eyelash is a natural next step — it shares the same SuperBulky category and gives that wispy, dramatic fringe that pairs beautifully with Furever in layered projects. For something with a slightly finer hand that you can use as a companion yarn or border trim, Eyelash 100gr brings the same polyester durability in a Bulky weight with impressive yardage per ball.
Beginners will find Furever approachable because the stitches are big, the needle size is straightforward, and SuperBulky yarn grows fast enough to keep you motivated. The faux fur fibres do make individual stitches harder to see, so knit in good light and keep your stitch count simple — garter and stockinette both look stunning in this texture. If you want to mix things up with a non-textured SuperBulky to alternate rows or knit a coordinating panel, Amor is another SuperBulky acrylic option that pairs well for contrast.
Furever comes in five colorways — White Anthracite Black, Brown, Camel, a White-Grey-Camel mix, and Black — giving you a solid range from neutrals to versatile multi-tones. Whether you are knitting a gift, refreshing your winter wardrobe, or adding a statement piece to your home, there is a shade here that fits, and at 3 balls per pack you have everything you need in one order.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much Furever yarn do I need for a scarf or cowl?
Each ball of Furever gives you 60 meters (about 65 yards), and the package comes with 3 balls, giving you a total of 180 meters (around 197 yards). For a simple knitted scarf — roughly 150cm long and 20cm wide on 9mm needles — those 3 balls will get you there comfortably with a little to spare. A cowl or snood uses slightly less, so one pack is usually enough for that too. If you want to knit a small throw pillow cover or a chunky lap blanket, budget for 2 to 3 packs depending on the finished size. Always buy one extra ball from the same colorway in one go, since shade differences can appear between production batches.
Is 100% polyester faux fur yarn suitable for beginners?
Yes, and Furever is actually a great starting point for beginners who want fast, satisfying results. Polyester yarn is forgiving — it does not split as easily as some loosely-spun natural fibers, and it holds its shape well while you are learning your tension. The SuperBulky weight means you will see your project grow quickly, which keeps motivation high when you are just getting started. The 9mm needle size is also beginner-friendly: the stitches are large and easy to count. One thing to know is that faux fur yarns make it trickier to spot mistakes, so work in good lighting and stick to simple stitch patterns like stockinette or garter stitch. Both look striking in this fluffy texture.
