Ricorumi 25g Furry Furry 020 Night Blue

There’s something a bit special about a darker, moodier shade when it comes to texture, and Ricorumi Furry Furry 25g 020 Night Blue does it beautifully. This clever yarn is designed with fine fibres embedded into a slim carrier thread, so as you crochet or knit, it gently opens out into a soft, fur-like surface. It’s an effortless way to add depth and interest to your stitches, giving your projects a more tactile, finished feel without needing to change how you work. The deep night blue shade brings a richness that works brilliantly for more dramatic creatures, cosy details, or anything that benefits from a slightly more understated, sophisticated look. It pairs perfectly with the Ricorumi cotton range too, with colours designed to complement each other, so you can mix smooth and fluffy textures with ease. We love it for adding character to toys and amigurumi, especially when you want something that feels a little more grown up while still being playful, and it works wonderfully alongside designs from the Ricorumi Marvellous Monster Under My Bed book. Made from 100% polyamide, it’s durable, lightweight and easy to handle, with a generous 175 metres in each 25g ball giving you plenty to experiment with. Even with its textured finish, it remains very approachable, so makers of all levels can enjoy using it straight away.

How to use it and why it’s so effective

This is a yarn that quietly does the work for you. Simply knit or crochet as normal and let the fibres create that soft texture as you go. It’s ideal for adding fur details to animals, creating trims or highlights, or introducing contrast into simpler pieces. You can keep it subtle with small touches or build up more texture if you want a fuller effect. It’s lightweight enough not to weigh your project down and blends easily with other yarns. Care is simple too, with a gentle 30 degree wash keeping everything looking its best. Suitable for beginners through to confident makers, it’s an easy way to add something a little different to your projects.
