Review on πŸ‘€ 600PCS Safety Eyes and Noses with Washers: Black Glitter Plastic Eyes for Stuffed Animal Amigurumi Doll Crochet and Crafts by Gelin Battle

Revainrating 4 out of 5

good sentence. but.

I started knitting amigurumi with aran/worsted acrylic yarn a few months ago, since then I've switched to using only bottom stitch yarn (which is denser than yarn overs) and cotton yarn, which is a lot is thinner. and does not stretch. To be honest, that makes it pretty difficult to see even one of those eyes. Your messages are pretty thick compared to some other places I've gotten them. For example I just made the items in this box in the photo and for the bee rattle / teether I literally couldn't use those eyes, ended up using some with a blue iris which I didn't want to use because baby they are for that , so they don't have blue eyes but none of them in this set fit through the seams no matter how hard I push and try to stretch and all that. The eye post was thicker than my hook lol. The bear and soccer ball probably took 20 minutes each eye to get it through the seams, and I actually only did it because I didn't have another suitable option from another brand. So my only complaint is that the stem is too thick for smaller, more traditional amigurumi, but if you make amigurumi with a crocheted, thicker yarn or acrylic yarn you will most likely be perfectly fine, I've used them in many projects. before I switched to Cotton dk/Yarn and they were fine.

Quick and safe way to finish off knitted bears for toddlers which I make for charity.
