Great summer yarn

CASCADE ULTRA PIMA

COTTON

GREAT FOR

SUMMER KNITTING 

Hello everyone,


One of the most respected names in yarns is Cascade, and this Ultra Pima cotton, made in Peru, makes it easy to see why.  This yarn is offered in lots of other colours and if there is enough interest I am happy to get in some more.

With delicate, ethereal colours and a soft and supple hand, this is the perfect yarn for light summery tops, shawls and scarves. There are many suggestions of patterns on Ravelry that will work for this yarn. This is also the yarn that most people who knit  "knitted knockers" use. At a Double Knitting gauge of 22 to 24 stitches in 4inches on a 3.75 mm to 4mm. it is a very versatile yarn.

And although it may not seem like it, summer is coming...I promise!!

Happy knitting,
Lynn
