Hi Everyone,

I've found a website www.threadart.com that has some lovely looking
soft chenille yarn on it. I would like your opinion if you have used
this before and how it would be in afghans for children. I remember
some saying that some chenille sheds and I don't want that to happen.
This company is located in Texas.

Thanks for the help.

Hugs,

Nora

Nora, I haven't used this particular yarn, but I did knit a sweater from
Rowan cotton chenille several years ago. There hasn't been any problems
with shedding from it.

I have never knitted with chenille, so can't give an opinion, however I
have woven with it and not always with great success. The very expensive
Rowan cotton chenille, for a scarf was a dissaster. I must be honest, I
am not sure if that was me or if it was the yarn. It did worm like mad.
Nora, I would buy one or two balls of the stuff and try it out..... knit
and wash it and see how it works out
