I recently tried amigurumi crochet for the first time - making Star Wars figures with acrylic yarn - and having had some success with that graduated to a project making dolls of ‘Iconic Women who Changed the World’ which recommended the Rainbow Cotton 8/8 yarn. I have never used cotton yarn before but have been very impressed with it, finding it smooth and soft, but also strong. It does not seem to shed fibres as I work it and the fact that it doesn’t stretch makes it particularly good for toys. The huge range of colours is impressive, the price is very competitive and the service I have received from Hobbii has been friendly, helpful and quick. I expect to buy more of this yarn in the future and have seen numerous others on the website I would also love to try.

I have a small knitting business knitting baby clothes and other bits and I use this brand of yarn for all of my projects. I absolutely love it and I am always getting compliments from customers on the quality of the yarn. This particular dk weighted yarn is perfect for the autumn/ winter baby clothes that I knit. It’s so soft and easy to work with, couldn’t recommend it enough. Also the choice of colours are beautiful!

I’m not a knitter nor do I crochet!
I’m a weaver and always on the look out for natural yarns in a wide variety of colours.
I stumbled across Hobbii and fell in love with the 8/8 cotton yarn - what a beautiful array of colours, it was hard to stick to my original palette. Fantastically quick service, I hardlyhard time to drool and be impatient!
Will definitely be back for more - just don’t tell my husband!

Just recently discovered Hobbii and fell in love! Decided to learn to crochet and came across this fantastic range of colours, I couldn't resist buying a rainbow palette to start a new blanket. Lovely to work with and a huge choice of colour.
Service was amazing, it seemed no sooner had I put in my order, it was despatched! I will definitely be coming back for more 😊
