So far I love this yarn! Since its a velvety type I would recommend going down a hook size and doing smaller stitches that dont leave a lot of slack since velvety yarns tend to worm. Otherwise its way more durable than the more expensive (starts with a B) brands velvet! Ive had way less issues with this one!

Works up well and is very soft. Easy to use and enough yardage to complete any project you have in mind.

I bought six cones of this same yarn in different colors. I make prayer blankets for people in wheelchairs. The. Chenille is the most popularly requested yarn. So far, I have made one 60 x 72 Afghan, three wheelchair Afghans, and three lap Afghans. This Cone seems to last forever because I still have enough of each color to make several more Afghans at least! Aside from the sheer quantity of yarn on each cone, I have only had 2 knots in any of the six cones I purchased and have used so far. It ties on beautifully when adding new colors. I have had zero shedding and zero frays. I will absolutely be purchasing more of this for future projects. The recommended crochet hook size is eight, but I use a 9 mm hook because I drop less stitches with the 9 mm and the thickness of yarn. A word of warning; your first chain row is easy to make, but the second row is a bear! This yarn is so soft that the second row is very difficult to crochet. I would highly recommend an advanced crochet level., Simply for the difficulty in working that second row. Once I got to row three and throughout the remainder of my work I had no difficulties whatsoever working with this beautiful yarn.

This chenille yarn is very nice and a great buy! Love the fabulous Amigurami I was able to create with it.

Easy to work with, beautiful to see and feel!
