How to use Candy by Sensy yarn?

Sensy Candy is an easy, versatile yarn that’s very comfortable to work with in both knitting and crochet. Its stable twist prevents splitting, allowing you to work cleanly and with a professional finish.

Practical usage tips:

▷ Use 3.5–4 mm needles for well-defined, drapey fabrics
▷ For amigurumis or compact pieces, use a 2.5 mm hook for a tight, firm fabric
▷ Make a gauge swatch if your project requires exact sizing (e.g. garments, blankets)
▷ Always wash on a delicate cycle (max. 30 °C) or by hand, and dry flat to maintain shape
▷ Do not tumble dry or apply direct heat with an iron

Expert tip: If you want your project to have more structure (e.g. for baskets or accessories), go down half a needle or hook size. For lighter, drapier garments, use the recommended size.
