But The Boucle Yarn Bouclé yarn is a unique-looking type of novelty yarn with loops and curls in it. That makes for a fun bumpy texture that could really liven up your project. This yarn is wonderful for scarfs, hats and any other warm clothes that you want to be unique.
Next, we have chenille yarn. Due to the tiny, fuzzy threads twisted together in each strand of chenille gives you a result that is super soft. That gave it this lovely, soft velvet texture — perfect for cuddly stuffed animals or cozy blankets to snuggle up with. Chenille—faint of heart need not apply as it can be super soft and velvety!
Ribbon Yarn -Another great type of yarn is ribbon. Like the name could not be more suggestive, ribbon yarn is nothing else than ribbons that are knitted or crocheted together. My projects can result in to some beautiful and original designs with this yarn. But, it is slightly difficult to manage so you will need some practice.
Finally, we have slub yarn. Sizes vary throughout slub yarn, so certain parts are larger than others in width. The effect is an interesting, inconsistent texture that can help to achieve a distinct homemade feel in your work. Not suitable for every project but can be great with dishcloths or place mats, where a rustic feel is needed.
Now that you have become aware of the different types of textured yarns, only sky is teh limit. Combine these yarns to create new textures and patterns for your projects. For instance, you could combine bouclé yarn with a smooth and shiny yarn type to make a fun + chic.
There is also a chance to explore new stitch patterns and experience the beauty of different textures in your yarns. The loops of bouclé yarn do not always show up very well in a simple stitch, so I may choose an interesting or more complex textured pattern instead. Therefore, it is essential to experience the new things.
