I use this lovely soft yet sturdy 100% cotton yarn to make amigurumi octupus to include in my little preemie and pre-preemie sets of a tiny blanket and beanie/cap which I make with Premier Bamboo Fair which is 60% Rayon from Bamboo and 40% cotton.

Research has shown that these little softly stuffed octupus help to reduce the preemie's heart rate, helps to prevent them pulling out their tubes, and the twirly legs, apparently, reminds these little ones, who are fighting to survive, of the umbilical cord. Because of this they love to grasp the legs with their tiny little fingers for comfort.

It's important yarn used for Preemie projects are smooth and soft and have no fuzzy fibers to irritate the baby's skin, and/or lungs. Both Cotton Sprout and Bamboo Fair fit the bill perfectly!! Thank you, Premier. I'm a new customer having just discovered your yarn.

Started my first sweater using the black color and it is working up nicely! The yarn is soft, very minimal splitting, and I am able to see every stitch without any issues.

I wanted to make a lightweight cardigan for 6 months grandson All my grandchildren knitted items have to be wash and dry. Cotton sprout was perfect. Great stitch definition and easy on the needles.

It has such a soft hand and lovely consistent twist and a lot of “bounce “ for cotton. Making up a tunic sweater.

Good choice for a beautiful blouse
