Collection: Chenille

Coined from the word "caterpillar" in French, chenille fabric is known for its distinct softness created by twisting short lengths of yarn, called the "pile," between two "core yarns" and then twisting the yarn together. The velvety pile and depth create an iridescent quality making chenille fabric perfect for luxurious upholstery pieces that invite touch. Chenille upholstery fabric found at our Fabric World online fabric store provides exceptional durability and stain resistance properties so you can indulge in chenille without the worries.
