Cascade Ecological Wool


We just received Cascade's "Ecological Wool". It's a fabulous 100% Peruvian Highland Wool that is surprisingly soft. The skeins are "big baby" skeins -- 478 yards in each. So, if you have a felting project in mind -- this yarn would be great. Or if you are dreaming of a soft, woolly sweater this yarn would be perfect.
Several of the staff have already bought a few skeins for sweaters -- it's just that yummy.
Check out Brooklyn Tweed's blog -- he made a beautiful hemlock ring blanket from this wool!
