I have made four scarves out of this product. I have liked the way it has felt and it wearing well. Three of the scarves have been knit for boys- (stranded colorwork, basic stiches)and they seem to be wearing well. I would recommend this yarn to others.

I would buy this product again.

I've made several sweaters with Cascade 220. It knits up nice and seems to hold up very well. It has nice stitch definition expecially with cable work. Great value for price.

I made a felted knitting bag with three 220 colors that felted beautifully. I love the texture of this yarn and it's finished product. I have used it for a Marmalade sweater which turned out stellar.

Comments about Cascade Yarn Cascade 220 Yarn #8505 White:

Although Cascade 220 might be described as a workhorse yarn, it is versatile enough to be used for elegant garments as well as baby blankets, adult hats and gloves and more. As an indie dyer, I predominately use the white and the natural, both of which take color very well, but as a knitter I've used Cascade 220 for many applications. It can be subbed in for many other yarns, and does so at an excellent price per yard.

Service & Delivery comments:

Online purchasing was easy to do...nothing confusing about it. Delivery was prompt. Price was better than any other I found online. Go AlpacaDirect!
