What do you use Jeans for?

Jeans is the classic for amigurumi and stuffed animals, but it can do much more:

·       Amigurumi and stuffed animals – sharp stitch definition, stuffing remains hidden.

·       Baby clothes and blankets – soft and skin-friendly.

·       Summer clothing – tops and cardigans with patterns.

·       Bags and accessories – sturdy and keeps its shape well.

·       Punch needle – the smooth texture makes it easy to work with.

Helpful tips

·       With needle size 3.5 mm, you get a nice, average tension.

·       For amigurumi, crochet a bit tighter so the stuffing doesn't show.

·       For garments, always make a gauge swatch first to ensure the correct size.

Care

Jeans can be machine washed at 30–40 °C on a normal or delicate cycle. Lay your work flat to dry and avoid the dryer, so it retains its shape and softness.
