Pica Pau Cotton 8/7 is a 100% combed cotton yarn created in collaboration with Yanina Schenkel (Pica Pau), the celebrated amigurumi designer and author behind the beloved Animal Friends of Pica Pau series. This special yarn line is a tribute to over a decade of whimsical character design, brought to life through a palette of carefully curated colors.
From dusty reds and ochres to teals, mustards, and muted purples, each shade has been handpicked by Yanina to match the tones she uses in her books: colors that are desaturated yet vivid, playful yet grounded. It is a palette designed for dreamers, makers, and storytellers.
Cotton 8/7 holds its shape beautifully without being stiff, making it ideal for amigurumi and other sculptural work that calls for clean stitches and expressive detail. If you are planning on using the yarn for amigurumi, we recommend using a 2.75 or a 3 mm (US C-2) crochet hook. For other projects, you can follow the sizes on the label of a 5 mm (US H-8) crochet hook or 4 mm (US 6) knitting needles.
While it was made with amigurumi in mind, Pica Pau Cotton 8/7 is just as lovely for other creative projects: from soft home décor and accessories to baby garments and colorful gifts. Whatever you dream up, this yarn is the start of a story.
The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2276-367). Find more information about the certification at: https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/

I had been eagerly awaiting Yan's line to drop as I'm an avid lover of her pattern books. To know these were crafted with care and love, not to mention the perfect color palette, they were an immediate buy for me! They just arrived and I'm so excited to start Harmony the Pig! The easy pulls for the center pull were a very nice touch. Very likely to be the start of me trying to complete the entire book (Pica Pau 3 is my favorite) with them.

Love that this yarn is 100% cotton and the color selection is great. It worked nicely for a hat project and I would like to use it for amigurumi in the future.
