Toucan is a voluptuous chenille yarn that will bring a touch of velvet to your stash. This yarn is produced in 100% polyester which makes it plush and easy to care.
Crafters will appreciate its versatility and its generous thickness. You will just need some 6 mm (US 10) knitting needles or a 7 mm (US ~K-10.5) crochet hook to start creating your next project. Even bigger creations will go by quickly with this type of yarn as it will create a plush and dense result with even the most simple stitches.
As the vibrant hues of tropical birds, Toucan’s color palette is equally vivid and elegant, ensuring that you will find the perfect choice in its vast color variety.
Use Toucan to create blankets and throws, poufs, pillow covers, and carpets, as well as plushy animals. Get creative with exploring its texture, drape, and color possibilities.
Toucan will make sure that your projects will not only be visually stunning but also irresistible to the touch.
Pro tip: tie a knot when starting and finishing your skein or carefully burn its endings to secure the loose fibers in your project after weaving them in.

I gave 5 stars because I noticed you have to go to the last page of the reviews to see the bad ones. This is the WORST yarn I've ever used, it SMELLS, it feels ROUGH and leaves my fingers feeling gross, trying to make a magic ring is insanely HARD, God forbid you try to pull a knot tight because it's just going to SNAP with the slightest pull, and it SHEDS so so much. I bought so much of this after seeing what looked like mostly good reviews. This yarn is HORRENDOUS. It's like if parfait chunky and big twist posh took all of their worst qualities and made a disgusting yarn baby. I tried so hard to just deal with it but it's genuinely awful 😊

I thought I was taking a risk buying this yarn because there were only a few reviews when I bought it and a couple were pretty negative. But it was on sale and the price was great so I gave it a shot. I had a great experience with this yarn. The colors are very rich, the yarn much more sturdy than I expected. I was careful when frogging and didn't have any problem with that. Minimal shedding, no breaking. I'm THRILLED with the Technicolor Dream Coat (EarthTricks pattern) I created with it. I needed a couple of other colors so I got Baby Snuggle, which I didn't like as much. Toucan is sturdier.

I haven't used this yarn yet, but just by the look, it already makes me want to get it. I watched some reviews to make sure that it is good, and it sounds absolutely amazing yarn! I've been waiting so long to find a good yarn that is cheap and non- shedding or easy to crochet with. I also love that it gives you tips on how to prevent shedding and make it a good experience when crocheting! It looks so soft and perfect for any crochet project! Definitely worth the price!

Received 7 skeins of wonderful orange Toucan yarn. Thought to make a soft comfort garment for my daughter when I ordered these. I started with a 1-skein beanie to look like an orange - she loves it. I was impressed with the quality and durability of the strands - and it is so soft. We are exploring either a sweater or a "bowl" of soft crochet oranges in Toucan yarn for fun. Creative possibilities are endless! Great quality at great price!

I really enjoyed using this yarn and I loved the final look for the projects I worked on with it. I didn't really have any problems with shedding, and it was pretty easy to work with. The texture is different from Baby Snuggle and Honey Bunny, but I feel like it gives a much cleaner look than them. It's not that soft in comparison to them though. But either way I still really like it and it felt so much easier to use.
