What is Rico Design Ricorumi Nilli Nilli and what makes it special?
Rico Design Ricorumi Nilli Nilli is a 100% polyester chenille yarn with a matt finish, designed to add volume and softness to amigurumi. Unlike generic upholstery chenille, this yarn is specifically formulated for knitting and crochet: it is worked with 3 mm needles or a crochet hook and has a density designed to produce well-defined stitches.
It has Oeko-Tex® Standard 100, Class I certification (no. 21.0.58783), making it suitable for items that come into contact with babies. This amigurumi yarn is also known in other shops as chenille yarn, velvet yarn or simply chenille: different names for the same type of plush yarn. If you are looking for other polyester yarns for knitting and crochet, we stock several options with different textures. Nilli Nilli is available in 30 colours, ranging from pastels to neons.
What projects is Rico Design Nilli Nilli ideal for?
This yarn is designed primarily for amigurumi: its plush texture gives dolls and soft toys body and volume without leaving the finished piece looking flat. It also works well for small decorative details, such as brooches, keyrings or handmade jewellery accessories, where its subtle sheen adds an extra touch of personality.
If you are looking for more options for this type of project, our amigurumi yarn collection includes cotton yarns, chenille yarns and other special-effect yarns designed for dolls and soft toys.
Advantages of Rico Design Ricorumi Nilli Nilli
Choosing a chenille yarn specifically designed for knitting and crochet, rather than a generic decorative chenille, makes a real difference to the finished result. These are the main advantages of this yarn for anyone who regularly makes amigurumi and small projects.
- ▷ Soft, plush texture: gives each amigurumi a cosy feel, ideal for pieces designed to be cuddled or carried around.
- ▷ 25g format: each ball of chenille yarn is small, making it perfect for combining several colours without being left with whole unused balls.
- ▷ Oeko-Tex® Class I certification: suitable for items that come into contact with babies aged 0 to 3 years.
- ▷ 30 colours available: from pastels to neons, giving you plenty of scope to add personality to each figure.
- ▷ Easy care: machine washable at up to 30 °C and requires no special care.
How do you work with and care for Rico Design Ricorumi Nilli Nilli?
Like all chenille yarns, this yarn can be worked with a 3 mm crochet hook or knitting needles, and it is advisable to make a small tension swatch before you begin, as the strand is slightly more slippery than smooth cotton yarn and benefits from a firm tension from the outset.
For care, machine wash at a maximum of 30 °C, do not tumble dry or iron, and dry the piece flat so that it retains its shape and volume.
