Soft and warm, Solid Ivory is an antique-style off-white with a gentle creamy undertone rather than a bright pure white. This 16ply chunky chenille yarn has a plush, velvety texture that works particularly well for blankets, cushions, teddy bears, plush toys and neutral crochet projects.
Ivory is an easy shade to use when pure white feels too stark. Its warmer appearance works beautifully with cream, beige, taupe, brown and earthy greens, while still providing enough contrast against darker colours. It is also a useful neutral for projects where you want a softer, more traditional look, particularly baby blankets, nursery makes and cosy home décor.
The 16ply Super Chunky / Super Bulky 6 construction creates thick stitches and a substantial fabric while allowing projects to build up relatively quickly. It sits between the 12ply Blanket Chenille and 20ply Mega Chenille ranges, giving you a chunky chenille yarn with plenty of texture without moving to the thickest weight.
Solid Ivory is particularly useful for crochet teddy bears, plush animals, amigurumi, baby blankets, cushions, throws and scarves. The warm neutral also makes a good base for textured crochet patterns, colourwork or projects where you want the shape and stitch pattern to be easy to see. For stuffed toys, using a smaller crochet hook can create tighter stitches and help keep the finished shape firm.
Each 200g ball contains approximately 58 metres. For larger blankets and throws, check the meterage required by your pattern when calculating how many balls you will need, as chunky yarn uses metres relatively quickly.
