I love chenille and Velvet yarn but haven’t crocheted with it yet - I was wanting to buy some (from UK) but have been finding it super difficult to find some - does anyone have any recommendations? :smiling_face:

If you to the marriner website they sell chenille yarn (Himmalya yarn for £2.50)
Here is the link :link: Marriner Velvet Yarn (Himalaya)

I have the same issue ! I bought so much thinking : super fluffy amigurumis… and turns out that it not only frays for my MR… but mostly i never seem to be able to see the stiches. So my counting is all over the place.
Anyone having a tip for that would be super welcome :slight_smile:

My only tip is a mindset to go slower,- I mean way slower. Feel the stitches as you go along and put stitch marker on beginning stitch of row as well as end of row. So you can count correctly and put beginning stitch in correct place.
Also I heard of placing a yarn to stitch with chenille to help see stitches, and pull yarn out at end of row.
It took me 2 weeks, hours per day, to finish a hippo, but man it looks good. Except the leg placement is wrong. I would charge much more for these toys. Double or more.

I’ve never used it, although I have a pattern which calls for it, maybe someday. It looks like nice yarn, I’m not used to working with thick yarn.

It has a really good texture and sometimes I just snuggle on it because so nice and fluffy
