Sampling


Not a great photo but the colours of the scarf are pretty accurate.

A friend offered to wind rayon chenille warps for me and before I put a new line into production I figured I'd better get a prototype made to make sure I was going to be happy with it.  

I'm pretty much out of rayon chenille scarves and people do seem to be attracted to them PLUS I have all this yarn...

    Rayon chenille is so soft but it seems to have it's own mind. Do you use a certain weave structure to make it behave?

    I usually just weave it in plain weave, for a number of reasons. One reason is to keep the weight/thickness of the cloth lighter. Rayon chenille drapes so well that even in plain weave you still get great drape.

    Cheers
