Couldn't load pickup availability
Fantapants is a bright, true orange shade from Porta Craft's 12ply Blanket Chenille yarn range. Unlike the more yellow-toned regular Orange colourway, Fantapants has a distinctly orange appearance, making it a great choice when your crochet or knitting project calls for a clear, vibrant orange.
Made from 100% polyester, this chunky chenille yarn has a soft, fluffy texture with a plush, velvety finish. The 12ply thickness is particularly popular for crocheted plushies and amigurumi toys, while also being suitable for blankets, cushions, throws and other cosy handmade projects. Each 100g ball contains approximately 80 metres of yarn.
What Can You Make with Fantapants Chenille Yarn?
- Crochet plushies and amigurumi: A lovely orange for crocheting foxes, tigers, pumpkins, carrots and other colourful stuffed toys.
- Blankets and throws: Create soft, chunky blankets with a plush finish, either in solid orange or combined with other colours.
- Cushions and accessories: Suitable for soft furnishings, chunky scarves and other knitting or crochet projects where a velvety texture is wanted.

Yarn Dye Lots & Colours
When photographing yarn we try our best to represent the colours as accurately as possible, but the shade you see may vary slightly depending on device display settings, lighting conditions and how the yarn fibres reflect light. Small colour differences can also occur between dye lots, so we always recommend buying enough yarn to complete your project, plus a little extra just in case.

I really love how soft and luscious the yarn is, and it’s decent to work with but the fluffy stuff falls off so easily
They gave me wrong colour but really fast respond on email 🥰
