What fabric are anime plushies made from?

Question

Anyone who has a plushie of a character from an anime series will probably know that they're made out of a specific type of fabric. I'm interested in making some of my own, but I don't know what the fabric/fabrics is/are called. Can anyone help me?

Here's a picture of a plushie with the fabric in question:

Basically I'm wondering that the head and hair are made from.

Thanks!
