Hi! Iām Pineapplesaurus! Everyone is super duper kind and helpful, and i think ur going to enjoy it here at Ribblr. Please donāt hesitate to DM me for anything!
I think u should start off with regular yarn bc I personally feel it is easier to crochet with and is rlly good for beginners! While fluffy yarn is great, it can be just a little bit challanging to work with (even i still have trouble with it sometimes even with having 3 year crochet experience!) so to answer ur question, I think regular yarn is the way to go! (sorry for the long explanation!)
Hi there! Iām Little! If you need anything, feel free to DM me, or if you just wanna be friends! Everyone here is SUPER nice and helpful, and here are just a few amazing people:
@PickledSweet @Paradise08 @MayaPapaya7 @BerriesAndCr34m @LoafOfBread @Bobacat123 @TheForestFrog
~Iām sure any of these people would gladly help you out!
I think you should probably start off with regular yarn because it is WAY easier to crochet with. Although fluffy yarn is soft and fluffy, it is INSANELY hard to see your stitches, so I definitely donāt recommend that for beginners. As you gain more experience, you can then move on to trying out fluffy yarn!
Hope this helped!
Hi, Iām Annabeth (Or Alex) I would love to be friends! (If you want to) If youāre just starting out, I recommend using regular acrylic yarn with a 4 mm hook because fluffy yarn is hard to work with. If you need help with anything, donāt be afraid to DM me!
Tysm Little!! <3
Hey there! Welcome to Ribblr! Itās such a lovely community with everyone being super nice. I joined this year too, and I have to say, the warm welcome and support from everyone have made my experience really special.
Some of the amazing folks here are: @Bobacat123 @shrimpybrimpy @cuteascapybaras @CrochetCutesyCreations.
If youāre just starting out, Iād suggest trying out acrylic yarn with a 3 or 4-mm hook. Just a little tipāsteer clear of black yarn at first, as I found it a bit tricky in the beginning. But donāt worry, Iām here to help! If you ever need anything or just want to chat, feel free to DM me. My DMs are always open, and Iād love to be friends!

RIBBLR!!(cs)
oh yea ,and use regular, at least for now
HELLO NEW PERSON :DD welcome to ribblr!! iām elissa, feel free to message me with any questions :3 like everyone else here, iād say regular is better for beginners. i learned to crochet with worsted weight and then made a few things with fluffy yarn and they turned out ok, but i definitely dropped stiches and stuff like that, so stick with regular until youāre more confident! hope you feel at home in our little community<3
Thanks for tagging me! Iād be happy to help with anything. Regular is way easier! I donāt use fluffy and Iāve been crocheting for 5 years ![]()
Hello! I hope you enjoy it here and welcome to Ribblr, to answer your question I suggest regular yarn (regular being anything but fluffy, chenille, eyelash, plush, novelty yarn, etc) perhaps weight 4 or bulkier so you can see your stitches easier as opposed to fluffy yarn where you have to feel your stitches rather than see which can be much more difficult to count stitches and ensure correct stitch count depending on the pattern
Hereās something I try to do when I can for newcomers
if you ever need help never hesitate to ask in the community, if you need immediate answers feel free to use the help center, search in the community, or the wiki [link below] testing guidelines and community guidelines if needed
Happy crafting! Hope to see your crafts soon as well
congrats on your first post
grahhh thank you sm ![]()

hey there!! welcome to the awesomesauce world of ribblr <33 iām shrimpy!! DM me whenever and ifā¦ever (uh dont mind that) if you need help!! :D i dont bite!!
youāre rlly lucky that you found this website as a first time crocheter!! there are so many ppl here that can help you on your journey :)
okie now lemme answer your question: for yarn, it depends on what you mean by āfluffyā. i wouldnāt recommend any novelty yarns (eyelash yarn especially) for your first time, and i wouldnāt recommend fuzzy yarn either. fuzzy yarn is great to get an amazing final look, but itās hard to see the stitches and requires a fat load of concentration. i personally started with acrylic yarn, which CAN fray but is overall really good for beginners!
honestly, i would recommend leaning onto video tuts on youtube if youāre completely new at crocheting, but ribblr is the best way to get used to reading patterns!
cant wait to see where your journey takes you :D
