Tin Toy Yarn Color Palette Collection

Tin toys! Tin toys, or a tin lithograph toy, is a mechanical toy made out of tinplate and colorfully painted by chromolithography to resemble primarily a character or vehicle. (Don’t get mad at me about the authenticity of my inspiration photos, they are hard to come by) These toys have such a nostalgic feel to them and that is what I was hoping to capture for these palettes. Please feel free to take a look at the new tin toy yarn color combination palettes and get inspired to create a new child toy-themed yarn project!!

I really enjoy making these color palette collections. Here are a few easy options for you to ensure your crochet projects turn out beautiful. This collection will guide you in choosing what yarn color palettes work best for your upcoming project and what brand of yarn these palettes come in! Use 1 or all of the colors to create beautiful projects.
