What is Rico Design Ricorumi Neon DK and why does it stand out?

Rico Design Ricorumi Neon DK is a 100% polyacrylic DK yarn designed for making amigurumi in intense neon colours: orange, fuchsia and green. It combines a texture created for crochet figures with a colour contrast that solid shades cannot achieve.

Many crafters look for neon yarn to add an eye-catching touch to their projects, and in Spain most of the available options come from other brands. This yarn is an alternative backed by Rico Design quality: you can explore the rest of its Rico Design yarn collection, with verified Oeko-Tex® certification and made in Germany.

Which projects is this neon yarn ideal for?

It is ideal for amigurumi, dolls and small accessories where colour takes centre stage: eye-catching details, original characters or pieces designed as gifts. Its 25-gram format also makes it easy to combine several neon colours in the same project without wasting yarn.

  • ▷ Amigurumi and dolls with colour that stands out instantly.
  • ▷ Colour details and finishing touches on pieces made with solid shades.
  • ▷ Crocheted or knitted jewellery, such as keyrings or pendants.
  • ▷ Accessories and children's projects designed to catch the eye.
