Product Description
Paintbox Yarns Chenille is a 100% polyester chunky chenille, 120m (131yds) per ball, knitting to 10 stitches and 19 rows over 10cm on 6.00mm (US 10) needles; recommended crochet hook 6.00mm (J). Paintbox Yarns is our own brand, designed in house.
The pile is the whole point: chenille is softer against the skin than a standard chunky and works up into a dense, velvety fabric with a faint sheen, which is why it suits baby blankets, afghans, cushions and cosy jumpers and cardigans.
The pile hides stitch detail, so it works best in plain fabric — blankets, cushions and soft toys.
Care: delicate machine wash at 30°C, do not tumble dry, do not iron, do not bleach.

Customer Reviews
Beautiful and soft chenille yarn
Paintbox chenille yarn is so beautiful, soft, and lush to crochet with. I am making Christmas throws for my couch and chairs. It's a stunning yarn.
Soft and versatile chenille yarn
Chenille yarn is nice and soft for toys and blankets, which I always use for the little ones. I use it for blankets to snuggle under when reading a story or watching TV, and I use it for the toys to cuddle at night or when they feel sleepy.
a lovely, soft, cuddley wool in a great colour pink combination
lovely colours. I chose the pink mixture. knits up beautifully and is lovely and soft. Only fault is it does not like being undone and redone and the material tends to come apart easily i.e. the fluffy part comes off. I made a winter jacket and its quite warm to wear. I would recommend to confident knitters.
Always Great Service
Excellent yarn, crochets up well and is lovely and soft. Great for plushies, I made a lap blanket which turned out great.
