What Is Chenille Made Of?

Feb 15, 2023

Chenille yarn, also known as rope velvet, is a new fancy yarn. It is made of two strands of yarn as the core. Chenille yarn is made of two strands of yarn as the core and spun by twisting the down yarn in between. There are generally viscose/nitrile, cotton/polyester, viscose/cotton, nitrile/polyester, viscose/polyester Chenille products.


Chenille is made by twisting together short or long fibers of varying fineness and strength. See part is called surface yarn or decorative yarn, strong twist part is called core yarn, core yarn increases the strength of chenille yarn, accounting for 25%~30% of the chenille yarn composition, decorative yarn is the main body, accounting for 70%~75%, show the beautiful effect and style of Chenille yarn.

Chenille's process: Like a ring spindle, the finishing yarn spins from the top of the machine into the center of the hollow spindle. The blade on the spindle cuts the decorative yarn at regular intervals. The decorative yarn falls between the core yarn and is output through the roller and guide wheel.

The roller and guide wheel feed the two core yarns close to the finishing yarns. Due to the twisting of the ring spindle, the finishing yarns are fixed between the two core yarns and then wound onto a small Chenille bobbin (about 600 g). The speed of chenille yarn is 8 m/min~18 m/min, which is why Chenille yarn is expensive. Two identical strands of chenille yarn are produced on a spindle, which are wound onto a large bobbin.


Chenille yarn is widely used in the field of home textiles and knitted clothing because of its plump down, soft feel, thick fabric and light texture, forming a new highlight of product development. Chenille decoration products can be made into sofa cover, bed cover, bed blanket, table blanket, carpet, wall decoration, curtain curtain and other urban decorative ornaments.
