Baby Blanket 100% Polyester Chunky Chenille Yarn For Hand Knitting

Matt Chenille yarns have become increasingly popular in recent years, especially as they tend to be on the chunky side which makes them great for super-soft blankets. Developments in the production process means that whereas Chenille yarns of old used to easily shed their fluffy fibres, nowadays they're pretty sturdy and consistent!
