Yarn used to amigurumi

guru3819

what type of yarn used to create amigurumi smaller, or rather that the number of thickness?

Downsize your yarn and your hook. Have a look on the internet - there are plenty of sites that compare yarn and let you know what yarns are the equivalent of discontinued yars. Some even have pictures of the width of the yarns so that you can measure the yarns that you might like to use against the originals. These sites are really helpful if you want to downsize or use a yarn in you stash.
then, of course, you have to swatch..............:'(

Fio acrílico ou de algodão, qual o melhor?

Pessoalmente prefiro 100% algodão, fica muito mais fácil ver os pontos, mas o acabamento não é tão fofo como com acrílico.

My favourite is usually cotton (because of the definition of the stitches), but for some projects I prefer to use acrylic... Also if I can't find a fitting yarn colour in cotton

I think using a DK with a 3mm hook works best!

Cotton in 8ply is my favourite right now, though it often changes :)

mettre un fil plus fin, ou utiliser un crochet plus petit

I use Drops Paris or Schayenmayr to get nice end results

use worsted yarn, it's a #4 yarn which is medium BUT if you want a smaller amigurumi, use smaller needles.
