What to focus on
Watch the path of both yarn ends before tightening the join. Test the method on your actual yarn, since smooth and fluffy fibers can behave differently. Leave sufficient ends to secure rather than relying on a visual check alone.
Practice with Andy
Play the video once to see the result, then replay it in short sections as you work. Keep a small sample nearby to test the technique before using it on your finished plushie.
