For a knotted toy, the knot circumference is the number that matters — it’s the widest moment of the whole experience, and it’s the one this table is ranked by. Maker-measured, buyable listings only.

A big knot is advanced territory, and it rewards patience: the stretch at the peak arrives quickly and leaves quickly, which is exactly why people love it and exactly why you warm up to it properly. Firmness matters enormously here, since the same knot poured soft is a different and far kinder toy.
