Working with very small yarn.
Edited by afterbrain at 2024-1-1 23:03I received some tiny balls of yarn (DMC size 80 crochet cotton, 20g) and I was looking for inspiration for projects to do with them...
Here are some examples I loved, available on this site:
Anything by Lunar Heavenly (though this is all in Japanese and can get a bit tricky to follow
Doilies - Here there are so many options... I have been meaning to make Driada (Vitagul) for a while, but I am not sure how (and which size) it would come out. From the needle size it looks like the original pattern is not meant for a yarn this small.
(These patterns are available on the site, search for the bold part to find them)
Does anyone have any experience working with this yarn size? Or have other examples of projects like this?
Size 80 threadwas meant for tatting… although I’ve crocheted miniature toys with it … i have seen someone make a ton of micro granny squares then work them into an actual throw THANK YOU VERY MUCH no experience but following the thread to see responses! I made scrunchies from mini skeins. If they are cotton its ideal for your hair as it doesnt damage them Thanks. I have learnt a lot here This is very thin threads for crocheting doilies of Vitagul, theyll be too small. I think, you can crochet collar, maybe snowflakes and similar decor. Or try to use two fold thread You can make snowflakes.I find that with this tiny thread its very useful. Hermosos y Lindo y hermoso i like doilies the best for tiny thread Thanks for sharing!
