What is Scheepjes Little Darling Colour Pack and what makes it special?

Scheepjes Little Darling Colour Pack is a set of 8 mini balls of DK weight chenille yarn, designed so you can crochet or knit without having to buy full-size balls of every colour. Each of the 7 available packs is curated by Sarah Dee Crochet, a designer from the Scheepjes Designer Collective, with shades selected to work beautifully together from the very first round.

Each box also includes access via a QR code to an amigurumi pattern designed specifically for that colour pack, so you can start crocheting as soon as it arrives. Discover the rest of the yarns from this brand available in our shop.

Which colour packs are available and how do you choose yours?

Little Darling Colour Pack is available in 7 themed versions —Aqua Crew, Beary Cute, Farm Friends, Merry Minis, Pond Palette, Space Pals and Veggie Patch—, each with a different colour palette designed for a particular type of project. They all contain the same DK chenille yarn, so you can combine packs without worrying about differences in texture.

Each pack has its own QR code with an amigurumi pattern designed for those exact shades, so choosing one is mainly a matter of which colours best suit your project. Discover the rest of our yarn packs too.

What projects is Little Darling Colour Pack ideal for?

This mini ball pack is ideal for amigurumi, soft toys, baby blankets and any project that combines several colours in a small area: with each ball containing 25 grams, you can use each shade without being left with half an unused ball. It is also a convenient way to try the yarn before buying it in a full-size format.

  • ▷ Multicoloured amigurumi and crochet dolls.
  • ▷ Soft toys and cuddly toys for babies and children.
  • ▷ Modular blankets and baby wraps (granny squares) combining several shades.
  • ▷ Cushions and decorative details with a velvety texture.
  • ▷ Beginner crochet projects, allowing you to try different colours without committing to a full-size ball.

Advantages of working with Little Darling Colour Pack

Compared with buying individual balls in different colours, this pack offers several advantages: its ultra-soft, velvety feel is pleasant even against sensitive skin, the colour selection has already been chosen and coordinated by a professional designer, and the mini format helps minimise leftover yarn at the end of your project.

  • ▷ Ultra-soft, velvety feel, pleasant even against sensitive skin.
  • ▷ A coordinated selection of colours, without having to match individual balls yourself.
  • ▷ Mini format that helps reduce unused yarn left over when your project is finished.
  • ▷ Resistant to frequent washing without losing shape or colour.
  • ▷ Good value for money compared with buying 8 separate full-size balls.

How should items made with Little Darling Colour Pack be cared for?

Items made with this yarn can be machine washed at a maximum of 40 °C on a delicate cycle and tumble dried at a low temperature. They should not be ironed, as this could flatten the velvety texture.

It is also recommended to dry each item flat rather than hanging it, so that it retains its shape. Thanks to its OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification, it is a safe choice within our selection of yarns for amigurumi.
