Product Information
¾ in. (2 cm) Jumbo/Chunky Chenille for Hand-knitting and Amigurumi
Within our large color palette, you will find many that you cannot get anywhere else in the US. We carefully crafted our palette to provide the colors makers need for projects that are themed by your favorite sports team, school, holiday, or national flag.
What can you expect? Yarn will arrive as pictured but with our label and wrapped tightly in plastic to protect the yarn and reduce shipping costs. This is previously compressed yarn, sections of each skein were flattened. Fluffing it will bring it back to life. How does one fluff yarn? Our favorite method is to run the yarn through a wire whisk a couple of times. However, you can use your fingers or the back of a pair of scissors too.
Be sure to get enough for your projects, quantity is limited and once they are gone, they are gone. When comparing with other brands, be sure to compare cost per yard.
