   Chenille is a type of yarn or fabric characterized by its velvety texture and appearance, made from short lengths of fabric or threads that are placed together around a core of different material. The term comes from the French word for ‘caterpillar’, due to its soft and fuzzy caterpillar-like appearance. It is commonly used in materials such as throws, curtains, and upholstery.
