Amigurumi Yarn
Every yarn our studio makes for plushies, in one place — sorted from #2 fine for tiny, detailed amigurumi up to #6 super bulky for oversized huggable friends.
Which yarn weight for which plushie?
Choosing amigurumi yarn comes down to the size of the finished toy and how much detail you want. Here's how our range maps out:
| Weight | Our yarns | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| #2 Fine | Premium Cotton Acrylic 4-Ply, Premium Thin Soft Velvet, Candy Cloud Fuzzy Nylon | Palm-size amigurumi with crisp stitch definition — tiny limbs, clean faces, keychain-scale makes |
| #3 Light | Puffie Yarn | Your first plushie: forgiving, easy to unravel and redo, hides uneven tension |
| #4 Medium | Premium Acrylic 8-Ply | Bigger toys on a budget — generous yardage per skein |
| #5 Bulky | Velvety Chenille, Feather-Soft Faux Fur | The store-bought look: plush bodies, fluffy trims, fast progress |
| #6 Super Bulky | Shimmie Sparkle Chenille | Giant party and holiday plushies that work up in an evening |
Starting out? Begin with Puffie — it's the yarn we hand to every first-time amigurumi maker. It unravels cleanly when you miscount and its texture hides uneven tension. Whichever weight you pick, go down a hook size or two from the label so the stuffing never peeks through your stitches.
Every shade is dyed in small batches and hand-numbered, so the color you fall in love with is the color that arrives.
