Black Safety Eyes – 9 mm

Sometimes, standard sizes just don't quite fit the character you are envisioning. The 9 mm Black Safety Eyes are the perfect solution for those moments when 8 mm feels a little too small, but 10 mm looks too heavy.

This specific size offers precise detailing for medium-sized amigurumi or toys made with slightly thicker yarn weights. They provide a bold, defined pupil that gives your handmade animals a focused and alert expression without dominating the face.

Why choose the 9 mm size:

• Precision Sizing: The ideal "in-between" choice for crafters who are particular about facial proportions.

• High Quality: Made from smooth, glossy polystyrene that reflects light to create a lively look.

• Certified Safety: Tested to EN71-3 standards, ensuring they are free from harmful substances.

• Secure Fit: Includes durable polyethylene washers that lock firmly onto the stems.

Safety & Mounting Guidelines:

• Secure Attachment: Yarn naturally stretches and loosens over time. To ensure your handmade toy meets the same safety standards as store-bought items, a secure mounting process is vital.

• Melting Technique: For maximum security, we recommend melting the tip of the safety eye stem flat after attaching the washer. This creates a permanent "rivet" that is wider than the washer hole, preventing the eye from pulling through even if the stitches expand.

• Creator Responsibility: Creating toys for children under three carries great responsibility. Ensure eyes are solidly affixed and inspect your projects regularly to maintain safety as time passes.
