About Our Handmade Creations

Caring for Your YarnYummies Treasures

1. Washing:

  • Hand Wash Recommended: Gently hand wash with mild soap or baby shampoo in lukewarm water to preserve the fibers and shape.
  • Avoid Hot Water: Hot water can cause cotton to shrink, so use only lukewarm water.
  • Do Not Machine Wash: Machine washing may distort the shape or damage delicate stitching, especially with small parts or attached accessories.

2. Drying:

  • Press to Remove Excess Water: After washing, press (don’t wring) the amigurumi between two towels to remove excess water.
  • Air Dry: Lay flat on a dry towel and reshape as necessary. Avoid direct sunlight, as it may cause colors to fade.
  • Do Not Use a Dryer: Heat from the dryer can cause shrinkage or distort the shape.

3. Additional Tips:

  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Bleach or fabric softeners may damage the yarn fibers and colors.
  • Spot Clean for Small Stains: If possible, try spot cleaning small areas with a damp cloth and mild soap rather than washing the whole piece.
  • Yummies with Plastic Eyes: May not be suitable for children under 3. As with any items that have small parts, please inspect for loose parts before each use.

Handmade Craftsmanship & Size Variations

All YarnYummies products are handmade with care and attention to detail. Because each item is individually crafted by skilled artisans, slight variations in size, shape, and appearance may occur, even among products of the same design. We believe these small differences add to the unique charm and authenticity of our handmade items. Here’s why you may notice these variations:

  • Natural Variances in Handmade Process: Each piece is crocheted or sewn by hand, not by machine, which means no two items are exactly alike.
  • Material Flexibility: Cotton, milk cotton, woolen yarn, and cotton-acrylic blends can stretch or shift slightly as they’re worked, affecting the final dimensions.
  • Unique Touch by Different Artisans: Our team includes multiple artisans, each with their own crochet style and slight differences in tension, which can create natural size variations.
  • Size Approximation: Any sizes provided or shown in photos next to life-sized objects (such as a can of soda, bank/credit card, golf ball, key fob or stacked 1-inch cubes) are approximate, serving as a general size reference only. Slight differences are part of the handmade process.

Thank you for appreciating the artistry and uniqueness of our handmade creations!

Yarn Materials & Their Unique Qualities

1. 100% Cotton

  • Features: Soft, breathable, and gentle, 100% cotton is ideal for amigurumi, especially items for babies and toddlers. Cotton’s natural fibers are non-irritating, safe for sensitive skin, and easy to handle, making it an excellent choice for high-quality, hypoallergenic products.
  • Care Instructions: Hand wash in lukewarm water with mild soap. Gently press to remove excess water and lay flat to dry, avoiding direct sunlight. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as they can damage the cotton fibers.

2. Milk Cotton

  • Features: Milk cotton is a soft, lightweight, and durable yarn blend, popular for its soft texture and subtle sheen. It’s often a blend of cotton with synthetic fibers for extra softness and elasticity, making it great for amigurumi and wearable items.
  • Care Instructions: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle in cool water. Use a mild detergent and avoid high heat, which can affect the fiber’s softness. Air drying is recommended; avoid wringing or twisting.

3. Woolen Yarn

  • Features: Woolen yarn is known for its natural insulation, providing warmth and breathability, making it perfect for winter wear like scarves, hats, and accessories. Wool is also naturally moisture-wicking and elastic.
  • Care Instructions: Hand wash only in cool water with a wool-friendly detergent. Do not wring or twist; press out water with a towel and lay flat to dry. Wool can shrink or felt in warm water or a dryer, so avoid high heat.

4. Wool

  • Features: Wool yarn is even warmer than woolen yarn, with a denser and softer feel. It's ideal for cold-weather accessories and provides durability and comfort while maintaining heat.
  • Care Instructions: Hand wash in cold water with a gentle, wool-safe detergent. Lay flat to dry and avoid sunlight to prevent fading. Wool items should not be machine washed or tumble dried to avoid shrinkage.

5. Acrylic-Cotton Blend

  • Features: The acrylic-cotton blend combines the softness and breathability of cotton with the resilience and warmth of acrylic, making it a practical choice for items like hats that require both warmth and breathability. Acrylic fibers help the item retain its shape and resist wear.
  • Care Instructions: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Lay flat to dry or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid high heat to maintain fiber strength and softness.

Each yarn type brings unique qualities to our handmade creations, so following these care instructions will help keep your YarnYummies items looking their best!

What’s the Difference Between Amigurumi and Crochet?

Amigurumi and crochet are closely related, as amigurumi is a specialized branch of crochet. However, there are key differences between the two:

Aspect Amigurumi Crochet
Purpose Focused on making stuffed toys and figures Used for making garments, accessories, blankets, etc.
Techniques Uses primarily single crochet stitches in the round Involves various stitches (single, double, treble, etc.)
Shape Primarily 3D shapes Flat or 3D shapes depending on the project
Tools Uses small hooks for tighter stitches Can use a variety of hook sizes depending on the project
Yarn Typically uses thinner yarns like cotton or acrylic Can use any type of yarn, including thicker ones
Design Focus Emphasis on small details, faces, and expressions Focus on patterns, textures, and functionality

In essence, amigurumi is a niche within crochet that emphasizes sculpting with yarn to create cute, soft toys, while crochet encompasses a broader range of techniques and applications for both functional and decorative purposes.
