I was looking for a fine yarn for an amigurumi project that would be a gift for my adult daughter. I wanted it to be mostly cotton, soft, easy to work with, not break the bank, and bright colors. Most of all, I needed a red! Minikins had the perfect color red. I have made many amigurumi projects in the past and wish I had known about Minikins. It would have saved me time and headaches since this yarn has many colors and ball sizes--especially the popular colors coming in the larger sizes. It works up well crocheting smoothly with not much splitting and I have yet to find any knots piecing the yarn together.

I would have posted a picture of my on-going project, but my husband's dog got ahold of it and shredded it. I need to purchase another skein of Shell.

This is great yarn and wonderful colors. Thank you.

Awesome yarn for amigurumi. I’ve crocheted several toys with this and they are all well loved and holding up well. The yarn is soft and easy to work with.

It’s easy on the hands, and the amigurumis turn out so cute!!! I’m so glad Premier made a yarn with amigurumis in mind. It’s my favorite yarn to use now.

Perfect for all my amigurumi projects! Nice soft feel works up beauty!
