The origin of the word Chenille is France. The fuzzy look exhibited by this fabric was compared to the caterpillar and therefore the French word for caterpillar was used. Dalton Georgia is said to be the origin of this Fabric and it is said that this all started around the year 1890. By reading this guide you will be quite knowledgeable on everything about a chenille bathrobe.

A single needle and yarn is what was previously done in the early days. The fuzzy feel was achieved through the looping of the yarn. Technological advancements then made it possible to add more needles to the machines. This brought forth the tufting machines which are responsible for the fluffy texture of the garments produced nowadays.

When shopping for chenille clothing, you must always be careful since there are very many counterfeit replicas of the original fabric. Low prices are often a clear enough warning sign for these replicas. Through the concerted effort of genuine manufacturers, these cases are however being dealt with effectively.

These garments require special care during cleaning due to their tender nature. Because of this, you should machine wash your robes and carry out the rinsing on the delicate cycle in a tub full of cold water. You should never mix it with other garments during washing to prevent damages on the fabric. For softeners, a non- silicone based softener is most recommended.

Another challenge posed by chenille is the possibility of color transference. It is for this reason that one should never extend the washing period. Dry cleaning is advocated instead of machine washing. Many people complain that they witness a lot of lint in their machines after washing these robes. This should never be a cause for alarm as it is a normal occurrence.

It is a well known fact that the shedding of lint gradually reduces with subsequent cleaning. Not only does it reduce, but the fabric even gets softer. There are some people who react to lint and they are advised to opt for dry cleaning instead of washing. Most bathrobes will portray an uneven coloration. This is perfectly normal and can be attributed to the uneven absorption of all the dye by the fibre.

One advantage of chenille is its versatility for all conditions. Lighter and shorter ones are a perfect fit for hot temperatures. During the winter, the longer and heavier robes serve the role better. Most manufacturers produce their robes in a wide array of size options to suit all kinds of consumers. The fact that a huge portion of all the manufacturing is by hand attributes to the high prices commanded for these garments.

Most imported chenille poses a lot of danger for most consumers because most of it has not undergone flammability tests. Mice love making their nests from this yarn and for this reason due amount of care should be exercised during storage. In order to prevent the damaging of your robe, you should preferably place it in a well sealed container.
