Toucan is a voluptuous chenille yarn that will bring a touch of velvet to your stash. This yarn is produced in 100% polyester which makes it plush and easy to care. 

Crafters will appreciate its versatility and its generous thickness. You will just need some 6 mm (US 10) knitting needles or a 7 mm (US ~K-10.5) crochet hook to start creating your next project. Even bigger creations will go by quickly with this type of yarn as it will create a plush and dense result with even the most simple stitches.

As the vibrant hues of tropical birds, Toucan’s color palette is equally vivid and elegant, ensuring that you will find the perfect choice in its vast color variety. 

Use Toucan to create blankets and throws, poufs, pillow covers, and carpets, as well as plushy animals. Get creative with exploring its texture, drape, and color possibilities. 

Toucan will make sure that your projects will not only be visually stunning but also irresistible to the touch. 

Pro tip: tie a knot when starting and finishing your skein or carefully burn its endings to secure the loose fibers in your project after weaving them in.

Toucan is a nice chenille like Honey Bunny and Baby Snuggle. It is the same size as Baby Snuggle but the texture is not as soft (it is still quite soft though). I do recall having a few issues making a magic circle and it seems a bit more 'clingy' than other yarns, so a bit harder to pull through in a magic circle (just need to hold and pull in the right places). It also looks different to other Hobbi chenilles and has a bit more of a wavy/zigzag look along the yarns rather than the typical rounded look (its hard to explain).
I crochet decorative pieces rather than functional clothes, toys etc so texture and fibre composition does not matter to me so this is just as good as any other chenille to me and I do encourage anyone who is fond of chenille to try!

Absolutely amazing yarn… I absolutely hate working with chenille, but i loved working with this yarn, running my hands over it, just loving the texture. Some advice, definitely don’t crochet with this in hit weather though… made the mistake of bringing it on holiday with me only to not being able to touch it because it was so warm and made me sweat 😂😂😂

This yarn is absolutely FANTASTIC! I’ve used a lot of the honey bunny and baby snuggle yarn and this one is similar in terms of hook size required but with some added squishiness. The colour selection is amazing, there are so many beautiful shades to select from and it works up so nicely and hasn’t covered me in fluff like some other brands of chenille yarn.


Nikki

This yarn is sooooo beautiful. It’s soft, chunky and has a velvety look to it. I crocheted some cushions with it. It’s so super chunky it worked up so quickly. If you need to frog your work though pull gently as it can damage the yarn if too rough. ☺️


Larissa

Bought this mainly to compare to honey bunny and baby snuggles. It is just as soft and works up very nicely. It is a little bit thinner. It would still probably merge in with them no problem in projects!
