I would like to receive tips on good quality yarn for amigurumi, as I want to make my amigurumi more professional and beautiful.
100% mercericed Cotton:
Katia Capri
Yarn and Colors Must-Have
Schachenmayr SMC Catania
Anchor Style Creativa Fino
Scheepjes Catona
Rubi Super Cotton
Rosa Craft Sunny Cotton
Phildar Phil Cotton 3
They are all of the same thickness, they can be used with each other.
Thank you @WoolySnail and @Auntie. It's always good to know new yarns :)
Then I have also used half cotton and half acrylic yarns
Valeria di Roma Eco Luna 45% Cotton, 55% acrylic. I think it's the same as YarnArt Jeans.
Another good one is SMC Catania.
People like Catania and Catona because they're sport weight, so they are less likely to have holes, and since they're mercanized, each stitch is very distinct. So if you have a tight enough tension, any 100% mercanized cotton yarn will look great, even worsted weight. Pelo que ouço falar na comunidade dos amigurumi o fio Catona da Scheepjes é muito bom.

I use the following yarns interchangeably:
- Caline from Distrifil
- Phil Coton 3 from Phildar
- Rio from Lammy yarns
- Cotton Quick from Gründl
With a 3 mm crochet hook, or even a 2.5 mm when I want a very tight result.
They are all mercerized cottons, roughly equivalent (125m / 50g).
Distrifil is the cheapest, but sometimes sales or special offers allow you to find the other yarns at a reasonable price.
Ihave never used Scheepjes, but I have seen that they also have a very large number of colors. I think I will try. Auntie replied at 2025-11-19 18:17

I love mercerised 100% cotton (with aloe vera) to make it strong, look soft and crochet sharp. Sajo replied at 2025-11-23 21:43
