We really just cannot get enough of our fantastic Friends Cotton 8/8.
Cotton is a great, strong, durable, breathable, absorbent, and lightweight natural fiber. Friends Cotton 8/8 has no less than all these characteristics and it is made out of 8 threads spun together.
All the shades have been thoughtfully selected to create a complete range that spans from bright to pastel and darker colors.
The whole range comes with our “easy start” pull-out tab, making it much handier to find the beginning of your skein.
This fiber is also easy to take care of, making Friends Cotton 8/8 so versatile that you can craft anything with it. Need some inspiration? We recommend dishcloths, pot holders, totes, and rugs for your house. It will be suitable for any kind of garment for both babies, children, and adults. And let’s not forget stuffed toys, amigurumi, and cute animals. Cotton has a great stitch definition and will work amazingly well with textured stitches.
If that all was not enough already, another great thing about our Friends cotton yarns is that they are vegan-dyed.
Aren’t you already in love with Friends Cotton 8/8?
The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2276-367). Find more information about the certification at: https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/
About the Friends family
The colors of the yarns included in the Friends family are literally friends!
This means the color numbers correspond to the same color across the different Friends yarns. If you order the same color number from two different Friends yarns, they will match. Please note that there can be slight differences in the shades from fiber to fiber.
Have fun combining and matching them in all your projects.

My first time buy 8/8 Cotton yarn. I bought it to crochet a hanging plant pot holder. The good thing about this tarn is it comes in many wonderful colours which are the same as 8/4 and 8/6. Hopefully when I make my hanging pot holder ill post pictures of it. I absolutely love the shade of purple in this yarn.

Bought this to make a little romper suit and cardigan for friends baby. Its so soft and silky to knit with, beautiful yarn. Ran out of yarn with half a sleeve to go and it was out of stock. However it came back in stock well before Hobbii said it would. Very pleased thanks Hobbii x

Love the colour of the lemon yellow I bought so bright. The cotton is really soft and is really nice to knit with. I'm currently making the tour de France yellow jersey with it and it's coming out so nice. I can't wait to wear it 😍🥰

I love this cotton yarn, it’s so soft and bright! I use it to make granny squares for blankets and the squares come out so vibrant and soft to touch! It’s also really sturdy and doesn’t stretch much, which is good!

Good yarn! love the colours, does not split, feels lovely on the hook! Used for amigurumi. But when I've used it alongside the Ricorumi DK I'm finding that its a lot closer to Ricorumi Aran, trying the 8/6 next.
