A Detailed Guide On A Chenille Bathrobe

By Robert Kelly


The French word for caterpillar is chenille and this is said to be the origin of this word. The fuzzy look exhibited by the fabric had a lot to contribute to that name. Around 1890, in Dalton Georgia, it is said to be the place where this yarn was invented. The information presented herein aims at teaching you a few things 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.

Despite the high quality of these bathrobes, one has to keep an eye out for counterfeits. There are several quacks out there seeking to deceive the general public that the robes they are selling to them are original Chenille. One way of avoiding buying such replicas is avoiding buying highly discounted garments. There is however a concerted effort by genuine manufacturers to crack down on the fakes.

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.

Chenille is wearable in all weather conditions. The heavier and longer robes are ideal for the chilly weathers. As for the warmer condition, lighter bathrobes are a perfect option. Practically all body types are catered for in the market. The high prices of these garments are expected because most of the manufacture is done by hand.

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.
