Pica Pau Cotton 8/7 Nude

Pica Pau Cotton 8/7 Nude 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, now expanded with a thoughtful and inclusive palette of skin tones.

From pale porcelain and warm honey to deep mocha and rich cocoa, each shade in the Nude collection has been carefully developed to reflect the rich diversity of human skin tones. Whether you are creating dolls, animals, or entirely new characters, this palette makes inclusive design easier and more accessible than ever.

Cotton 8/7 Nude 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 Nude 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/
