(The major detriment is that I'm always tempted to add to my stash, end up buying against my better judgement and not using as quickly as I had intended or on the original project I had intended! I often am intending to make a major item such as a sweater then breaking it up into a scarf because it is quicker to have.) The product received is always as described, usually even the colors shown are as close to reality as it would seem possible. The texture is great, etc., and obviously not an item rejected by poor manufacture, or rejected for other poor quality and thrown into the online market because it can't be seen individually at time of purchase.

Comments about Cascade Yarns 220 Discontinued Colors:
This knits up beautifully. I have only one gripe. If you do not knit it tightly enough it will pill a lot anywhere there is friction. So if you're thinking of knitting a sweater, I would go down a needle size and up a garment size to compensate if you are a loose knitter like I am. I made a beautiful sweater but the armpits are constantly pilling. Otherwise, this is my go to yarn for sweaters for sure!

I used this yarn held double to make an infinity scarf for a Christmas 2013 gift for my daughter. All the dye lots were the same, the value was excellent and Cascade 220 never disappoints.

For once in my life, I am getting an early start on Christmas gifts. These felted mittens will delight each of my four sisters. The yarn is beautiful and interesting -- 2 skeins is just the right amount for the lattice and bobble felted mitten pattern.
