A warm, medium brown with a soft natural appearance, Solid Teddy Bear is an easy choice for traditional teddy bears, woodland animals and cosy neutral projects. This 16ply chunky chenille yarn has a plush, velvety texture that gives crochet and knitted pieces a soft, cuddly finish.
The colour sits comfortably between lighter beige-brown shades and deeper chocolate tones, making it particularly useful when you want a recognisable teddy bear brown without going too dark. It also pairs well with ivory, cream, taupe, white and earthy greens for soft toys, blankets and other projects using a natural colour palette.
At 16ply, Super Chunky / Super Bulky 6, this yarn produces thick stitches and a substantial fabric while still being practical for a wide range of crochet and knitting projects. It sits between the 12ply Blanket Chenille and 20ply Mega Chenille ranges, so it gives you a chunky plush finish without the extra thickness of the 20ply weight.
Solid Teddy Bear is particularly suited to crochet teddy bears, plush animals, amigurumi, cushions, chunky blankets and children's projects. The brown shade is useful for bears, dogs, koalas and other animal designs where a natural-looking body colour is needed. For amigurumi, a smaller crochet hook can be used to create tighter stitches and help maintain the shape once the toy is stuffed.
The 200g ball contains approximately 58 metres. When planning larger blankets or throws, use the pattern's meterage requirements to estimate how much yarn you need, as the thick 16ply construction uses more metres per stitch than finer yarn weights.
