Crochet Eeyore tail and pattern.

I relate to Eeyore from Whinnie the Pooh a lot. He's so sweet and cute. Then there are these little tails people can buy at places like Hot Topic or Spencers and wear them on their belt loops. So I chose to make one of Eeyore's tails! It's a simple pattern. These are great for children at Halloween or if you're like me; you just like looking cute in your everyday life c; If you use my pattern please let me see how you guys did!

Materials:
Yarn in Blue, Black, White, and Pink.
Scissors.
6mm crochet hook.
Optional Pet/Wire Brush.
Velcro.
Yarn needle.

Abbreviations:
Sc- Single crochet.
Dc- Double crochet.

Row 1)In blue. Chain 9 and sc all the way back to the first chain. Chain 1, turn.
Row 2) Sc in each stitch. Chain 2. Turn.
Row 3 and on to desired length) Dc in each stitch. Chain 2. Turn.
From here you want to start to decrease gradually until you have a point at the end.

The fur part of the tail: Black
Wrap your black yarn around your hand about 50 or more times and cut so all pieces are the same length.
Cut a longer piece of black yarn and tie it around the group of 50+ in the middle. Then take the yarn and push it through one of the areas in between your last few dc at the end of the tail, weave the yarn you tied in the middle through the blue part of the tail and tie it together so it wont fall out.
Now if you want it to be more of a fuzzy texture, take a pet wire brush or a thick brush and brush through the yarn until you feel it get split apart and soften. Don't worry if you lose a lot of yarn in the process! Its expected!

The bow:
I used this pattern here in pink.
