Cascade 220 Superwash Wool Yarn
Description
Description
Silky soft and superwash! The preferred easy-care DK weight yarn for babies, children, adults, and home items. Cascade 220's smoothly plied 100% merino wool is extra warm and gentle, but without the worry of handwashing. Terrific colors, beautiful stitch definition and a versatile DK gauge make this yarn a great choice for so many of your favorite patterns.
Unlike lower-quality yarns the fiber is treated by smoothing the scales to prevent felting rather than coating the barbs, making this a lifetime superwash protection and not a temporary fix that wears off over time. This also means it doesn't have that 'plastic' feel of some superwash yarns.
Weavers: This is a perfect non-fulling pattern weft for home furnishings projects.
