A short Swatch Page column explaining how to make chenille yarn by weaving a spaced "blanket material" warp in groups of six threads, then cutting it into strips between the groups. It covers setup on floor looms and rigid heddle frame looms, weft choices, and cutting the strips. It also describes weaving the chenille as weft in a reversible rug with tabby spacing shots, and gives some history of chenille and a short reference list.
