About Product

What size safety eyes should I use with Himalaya Dolphin Baby?

Chenille toy patterns commonly call for 10–16 mm safety eyes, with 18 mm and larger on big plush. The thick pile can swallow small eyes, so check placement before fixing the washer, and push the post between stitches, not through the yarn. Black Safety Eyes – Mix Pack (25 Pairs) lets you test sizes on the finished head.

Himalaya Dolphin Baby vs Wolans Bunny Baby: what's the difference?

On paper they are near twins: both are 100% polyester velvet chenille with 120 m per 100 g ball, rated super bulky and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified. Dolphin Baby's label gives a 4.5 mm hook and 6.5 mm needles, while Wolans Bunny Baby lists wider ranges. Most patterns work in either, so the shade you need usually decides.

How many balls of Dolphin Baby do I need for a throw or adult blanket?

Plan on about 13–16 balls for a 100 × 150 cm throw. That scales up the usual baby blanket estimate of 5–6 balls for about 76 × 76 cm, which works out at roughly 10 balls per square meter. Stitch pattern and tension change usage, so measure a swatch and round up.

Can I knit with Himalaya Dolphin Baby or is it better for crochet?

You can knit it on the label's 6.5 mm needles for soft scarves, blankets and baby cardigans. Knitted chenille is more prone to worming, where loops pop out of the fabric, so knit firmly and favor garter or seed stitch over plain knit fabric. For amigurumi, crochet gives the tighter, stuffing-proof fabric you need.
