Cascade 220® combines affordability, quality, and versatility in one classic yarn spun from 100% Peruvian Highland Wool. Peruvian Highland Wool is a hybrid of Corriedale sheep, originally from New Zealand, and Merino sheep, which originated from Spain, resulting in excellent loft, durability, and stunning stitch definition. Each worsted-weight hank offers a generous 220 yards, making it a fantastic choice for cables, lace, colorwork, and simple stitch patterns. Available in many colors, including heathers, this handwash staple is perfect for creating heirloom-quality garments, accessories, and felted projects.
