Looking for a specific yarn!

Hello,
I'm new to the forum. :)
I really enjoy crocheting amigurumi and decorative items.
Some time ago I discovered chenille/velour yarns for myself. I love it when things are so nice and soft! :)

Now, while browsing at Tedi, I came across a yarn I hadn’t had before. It’s called Soft Cloud (50g=53m, 100% polyester). It has a slight shine and is super velvety/silky.
Of course I couldn’t resist and just had to take it with me, and it has spontaneously become my favorite yarn. Unfortunately, at Tedi it’s always a matter of luck whether they have any, and which color is available. 

Now comes my question: Does anyone know of a yarn/manufacturer that comes very close to this one? I’ve compared a lot already, but haven’t found anything. It’s thinner than Gründl Funny, YarnArt Dolce, or Himalaya Baby (these types are also too matte). YarnArt Velour has a similar shine, but feels duller and is too thin. Katia Velvet Fine is much too thin, but very similar in terms of velvetiness. I don’t want to order one skein of every kind of velvet yarn I find online just to compare. Maybe someone here has an idea?

Hey there!
Check out *Link removed, Mod*. They have great chenille yarns and will surely send you a small sample.

Best regards, Crisalino

Himalaya Velvet comes very close to the yarn you’re looking for

Hi Steffi. It’s been a long time since you asked, but this yarn is still available at Tedi. Now I’m looking for two skeins of Soft Cloud beige. I’m getting pretty desperate because I can’t finish the piece.  
In exchange, I could offer one skein each of brown and vanilla. They’re not in their original condition anymore, though, because I’ve already tried to see whether they match the beige, which I can’t find anywhere anymore. But it didn’t look that great. 
I’d also be happy to simply pay the price and shipping if you had any available. 
Please write to me here.
Best regards, Nicola

My daughter received this yarn as a gift—what are you crocheting with it? We’re kind of at a loss for ideas…

Hi Stefanie. I crocheted a crop top for my daughter. Super easy and chic.
Here’s a link to the pattern

Okay, sorry. I didn’t know that. 

You can find the crop top on YouTube under “easy fishnet sleeves crochet tutorial.”
