Because it’s polyester, the yarn resists matting and retains loft after gentle washing. Its worsted #4 weight gives enough body for stuffed shapes and cosy throws without excessive bulk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e100% polyester for durable, plush texture that stays soft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e#4 worsted weight with 10 wraps per inch (WPI) for balanced drape and structure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuggested needles US 9 (5.5 mm) and hook J (6 mm) for consistent gauge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eValue pack gives 856 yards to cover medium-sized blankets or multiple toys.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this yarn behave on needles and hooks?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the recommended US 9 (5.5 mm) needles, Chenillique knits to about 14 stitches x 18 rows = 4\"; on a J (6 mm) hook it crochets to approximately 11 stitches x 15 rows = 4\". The plush chenille fibre slides smoothly, making garter, stockinette, and simple textured stitches easy to form. Because of the pile, complex lace or intricate stitch patterns can be harder to read, so bold, simple stitches showcase the velvet effect best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKnitting gauge: 14 sts x 18 rows = 4\" (US 9 \/ 5.5 mm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCrochet gauge: 11 sts x 15 rows = 4\" (J \/ 6 mm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks best with simple stitch patterns and larger needles\/hooks to show softness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePile can obscure detailed stitch definition—choose bold textures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much yarn do I get and what projects can I make with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pack contains four 100 g skeins, each 214 yards, totaling 856 yards (400 g).
