Yarn consumption always depends on the pattern, size, technique, knitting or crochet tension, and the number of colours used in the project. You should therefore always use the specific pattern as a guide when ordering yarn.
Drops Magic comes in balls of approximately 50 grams, and each ball contains approximately 170 metres. It is a classic 8/4 cotton yarn with good yardage, so small projects and colour details can often be made using just a few balls.
Small details or decorations: About 1 ball per colour; if you’re using lots of colours, you’ll often need several balls or even whole balls. But of course, it depends on the project.
Crocheted figure / amigurumi: approx. 1–3 balls, depending on size, filling and number of colours
Dishcloth: approx. 1–2 balls, depending on size, pattern and tension
Glass coasters or small placemats: 1–3 balls of yarn; ideal for using up leftovers and creating colour combinations
Baby cardigan: approx. 2–4 balls, depending on size and model
Baby blanket: 5–8 balls; large cotton surfaces will quickly require more balls
Summer top or light blouse for adults: 5–9 balls, depending on size, length and sleeves. Add or subtract one ball if you go up or down a size.

Here are some guidelines for washing cotton clothes. Cotton can have a tendency to shrink in the wash, so make sure you measure the garment before washing so you can mould it to the right dimensions after washing:
Please note: If you want to wash a project that is a combination of this and another yarn, follow the washing instructions for the yarn with the finest/most delicate fibres.
Drops Magic is made from 100% cotton. It is a classic cotton yarn with a clean, natural look, suitable for both knitting and crochet.
Yes, Drops Magic is a classic 8/4 cotton yarn. This means it is a fine cotton yarn, which is thinner than, for example, 8/8 cotton, and is suitable for details, cloths, baby projects, crochet, decorations and light summer projects.
8/4 cotton is a finer type of cotton than 8/8 cotton. The first ‘8’ refers to the thickness of the thread, and the second ‘8’ indicates the number of threads the yarn is spun from. Roughly speaking, therefore, 8/8 cotton is twice as thick as 8/4. I’ve created a small illustration to illustrate this:
Drops Magic belongs to yarn group A and corresponds to 5-ply / sport. It is suitable for patterns with a gauge of around 23–26 stitches per 10 cm.
The recommended needle size is 3.50 mm. The specified gauge is 23 stitches x 30 rows, which will give you a 10 x 10 cm swatch. Always make a swatch, especially if you are making garments where the size is important. Note: also test how the swatch washes.
Yes, Drops Magic is ideal for crochet. It can be used for figures, flowers, decorations, washcloths, bags, baby projects, blankets, crocheted squares and many other projects where you want a fine cotton yarn.
Yes, Drops Magic is a good choice for amigurumi and crocheted figures. The 8/4 thickness makes it possible to create detailed shapes, and the cotton yarn produces clear stitches and a firm finish.
Yes, Drops Magic can be used for baby knits and baby items. It is a cotton yarn containing no wool and is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Class I certified, making it suitable for such projects.
Drops Magic is the new name for Drops Loves You 7. It is still a classic 8/4 cotton yarn made from 100% cotton, but the colour range may differ from the previous Drops Loves You 7 range.
Yes, Drops Magic is in the same yarn group as Drops Safran and can often be used in the same types of patterns, provided the knitting or crochet tension is correct. Always make a gauge swatch, and bear in mind that the yardage and appearance may vary between yarns.
Drops Magic yarn can be used for crocheted figures, amigurumi, washcloths, baby knits, children’s clothes, summer tops, blankets, cushions, decorations, flowers, crocheted squares and creative little projects.
