Cascade Heritage Sock Yarn
We stock ALL the shades! Cascade Heritage Yarn is a popular choice among knitters and crocheters for its blend of softness, durability, and versatility. Here are some key features:
- Fiber Content: It is made from 75% superwash merino wool and 25% nylon, making it both soft and strong.
- Yardage and Weight: Each skein contains approximately 437 yards (400 meters) and weighs 100 grams (3.5 ounces), making it a fingering weight yarn.
- Stitch Definition: Known for its excellent stitch definition, it’s perfect for detailed patterns and textures.
- Care Instructions: This yarn is machine washable and can be tumble dried on a cool setting, which adds to its practicality.
- Color Range: Cascade Heritage comes in a wide array of over 100 colors, offering plenty of options for any project.
- Ideal Projects: It’s great for one-skein projects like socks, mitts, and other accessories, but also works well for larger garments. Perfect weight for infant wear and accessories. Knit or crochet loosely for a great drape for scarves, cowls and wraps.
We stock all the colors in Cascade's Heritage yarn lines. There are over 100 shades in the solid shades alone! Cascade's Heritage Yarn is just not for socks! While it is my best selling sock yarn, many of the sales go to not only socks, but also is very popular for shawls, baby garments and t-tops. Whether you knit or crochet with this yarn, both techniques make up into a fabric with a wonderful hand. With the touch of nylon it is very durable, and since it was designed for socks, it is very washable! The array of colors is wonderful and ever changing.
