Flock Chenille Cotton Craft Yarn from Japan
Flock chenille yarn with short cotton fibers flocked onto a twisted core, creating a soft, fuzzy texture for craft projects and knitting. It qualifies for HTS 5606.00.00.90 as flock chenille yarn, distinct from smooth or basic looped yarns. The flocking process enhances bulk and softness.

Import Tips
• Document the flocking method to differentiate from needleloom felts or nonwovens under 5602
• Ensure yarn is not impregnated with plastics visible to the naked eye, avoiding 5604
• Label fiber content accurately, as blends over 50% non-textile could shift to Chapters 39/40
