What can you knit with Cashmere Light?

Consider scarves, cowls, hats, and sweaters designed for worsted-weight yarn. Choose a pattern that suits the soft, lofty fabric you want to create, and check its gauge and total yardage requirements before deciding how many balls to order.

Planning your project

Swatch with your chosen needles to check gauge and make sure you like the fabric before starting. Needle size is a starting point, not a guarantee of your finished gauge. For a substitution, compare your pattern's recommended yarn weight, gauge, and yardage with Cashmere Light's specifications.

How do you care for Cashmere Light?

Hand wash your finished project and lay it flat to dry. Plan for this gentle-care routine when choosing projects for yourself or as gifts.
