What is chinchilla fleece made from?

Chinchilla fleece is not made from the fur of chinchillas! It's actually a type of synthetic fabric that's been given that name because of its softness and texture, which resemble the fur of a chinchilla.

Chinchilla fleece is typically made from polyester or a blend of polyester and other fibers like acrylic or nylon. These fibers are spun into yarn and then woven or knitted into a fabric that is known for its plush, velvety feel and its ability to hold a lot of warmth.
