Ricorumi - mini balls of yarn perfect for amigurumi crochet

If you enjoy crocheting amigurumi, then Ricorumi yarn is just the yarn for you. There are over 80 different shades to choose from, including the print, lamé and neon collections. We stock the whole range of yarn, so you’ve got plenty of choice. 

It’s getting a little close to Christmas now to make all of the projects from the Jolly X-mas books. But don’t let that stop you, there’s nothing like being organised for Christmas 2021. All of the projects in these two books would make adorable Christmas tree ornaments or perhaps, a fun Christmas gift for friends?

We’ve put together a selection of colour palettes in the Ricorumi yarn that would be perfect for creating your own bundle of crochet treats. These colours would be lovely combinations to use for any another project. You could have some fun finding variations in other yarns. It’s always nice to have a spot of colour inspiration for knitting or crochet.

The Ricorumi Lamé mini balls are DK weight and are great for adding a sparkly trim or edging to a project. The type of yarn that is just handy to have in your stash when glitz is calling!

Rico have brought out so many fun crochet character books this year for their Ricorumi mini balls. You could be crocheting amigurumi all year round. Some of these other characters would make fabulous Christmas decorations too. They don’t have to all be Christmas themed, do they?

The circus book was a favourite this summer, including a clown, ringmaster and acrobat. Then there was the Halloween book and Funny Fall for autumn - a mini toadstool garland was just too cute to resist. Not forgetting the Space booklet which includes an astronaut, aliens and planets to crochet.
