🧵 The yarn
Schachenmayr LUXURY VELVET Chenille is a 100% polyester chenille yarn designed for those seeking extreme softness and a unique velvety effect. Thanks to its rounded structure and high fibre density, this yarn feels incredibly soft and has a luxurious look that enhances every creation, from fashion garments and accessories to the softest plushies.
Each ball weighs 100 grams and contains 75 metres of yarn. It can be worked with 6mm knitting needles or a 6mm crochet hook, making it perfect for both knitting and crochet projects. It is a pleasure to work with: the yarn glides easily over needles and hooks, making it suitable even for those new to chenille.
🧬 Technical composition: why it works
LUXURY VELVET's 100% polyester composition was chosen to ensure exceptional softness, durability and easy care. Unlike cotton or blended chenille yarns, polyester retains its velvety texture even after many washes, does not lose its shape and keeps its vibrant colors. This synthetic fibre is also hypoallergenic, making it ideal for plushies and accessories for children.
Its dense fibres create the characteristic velvet effect: every stitch looks full, soft and rich. This makes LUXURY VELVET perfect for projects where the finished look matters as much as the feel, such as fashion garments, decorative accessories and high-quality amigurumi.
📦 Ball size and yield
Each 100g ball contains 75 metres of yarn. A single ball is enough to make a child's hat, a small amigurumi plushie or a pair of neck warmers. It is ideal for small to medium-sized projects where softness takes centre stage.
Larger projects, such as a 50x50cm decorative blanket, require around 5 balls. For a size M adult sweater, allow 8–10 balls. We recommend buying all the balls you need in one order to ensure they come from the same dye lot: shades may vary slightly between different lots.
🧶 Recommended techniques
6mm knitting needles are ideal for this yarn because they create a soft yet compact fabric, perfect for garments that need to hold their shape. This size gives you a natural drape and stitches that show off the velvety effect without looking too stiff or too loose.
A 6mm crochet hook is perfect for amigurumi and plushies: it creates dense stitches that conceal the stuffing and ensure durability. LUXURY VELVET chenille glides easily over the hook, making it comfortable to work with even for beginners. For decorative projects, try a 7mm hook for a more open effect.
✨ Why choose LUXURY VELVET Chenille
Compared with other chenille yarns on the market, LUXURY VELVET stands out for its dense fibres and vibrant colors. Many budget chenille yarns tend to shed, fray or fade after just a few washes. Thanks to Schachenmayr polyester quality, LUXURY VELVET retains its velvety texture and vivid colors over time.
In everyday use, this means garments and accessories stay beautiful and soft: a hat that holds its shape, a plushie that stands up to frequent washing, or a blanket that keeps its luxurious look season after season. It is an investment in quality you can feel from the very first touch.
🎨 What you can make
LUXURY VELVET is perfect for plushies and amigurumi, thanks to its extreme softness and structure that hides stuffing beautifully. It is also ideal for fashion garments such as sweaters, cardigans and winter accessories, as well as home décor like blankets, cushions and throws with a velvety touch.
👩🎨 Who it's for
This yarn is suitable for both beginners and experienced crafters. It is a pleasure to work with: it glides easily over needles and hooks, does not split and makes stitches easy to see. Beginners will appreciate how easy it is to handle, while more experienced crafters can use its velvety effect in more complex projects.
LUXURY VELVET is a favourite among creative hobbyists who make plushies and amigurumi to sell or give as gifts, artisans looking for quality yarn for fashion garments, and anyone who loves creating luxurious-looking home décor. It is also an excellent choice for those looking for hypoallergenic yarn for projects for children.

📌 Important note
The yardage may vary slightly (±3%) from the stated 75 m, within the manufacturer's standard tolerances. Color shades may differ between dye lots: for projects requiring multiple skeins, we recommend purchasing the entire quantity you need in a single order. To secure the fibers at the ends of your finished work, you can gently singe the threads with a lighter (outdoors only, adults only, on a fireproof surface).
