Made socks as gifts a year ago, and with heavy use they are still without holes! So made more socks this year. This yarn feels comfy to work with, like it just as well as Silk Paints (which has silk instead of nylon)...so I would pick either one based on color availability!

This is beautiful yarn and a dream to knit, but the socks I made for my squeeze pilled after ONE night's wear. Boo! It's a shame, because I love the yarn -- but the socks look like cat puke now.

Comments about Cascade Yarns Heritage Paints:
I have used almost all the colors. I would like
some new solids and pattern colors.
This makes the nicest socks and is so nice to knit with. I have never found a knot in any
of the hanks I have.

I purchased this yarn for a shawl and am not disappointed. It is soft and feels great in your hands when working with it and wrapped around your neck.

Comments about Cascade Yarns Heritage Paints:
I love, love, love this yarn. It's pretty reasonably priced, the quality is very consistent, and the colorways are really fun. And it's so easy to take care of.
I've found that it pools/flashes at around 56-60 stitches around. Too bad for me, since that's my standard size for socks. But it's not much of an issue with the subtler colorways.
I've seen some light haloing on socks that have been worn and washed multiple times, but no major pilling so far.
I'm gonna keep obsessively watching out for new colorways and collecting them--I really love this yarn.

Comments about Cascade Yarns Heritage Paints:
I love this yarn! The colors are rich and beautiful. The yarn was so pretty that I was inspired to make something other than socks with it, so I tried something new and decided to use this for a lacy summer wrap ( I used 2 skeins) - it turned out gorgeous. It is a tightly spun yarn and easy to knit with. Very soft to the touch. I am adding this on my list of great yarns to use on future projects.

Love this yarn and I haven't even made anything with it yet. The colors are amazing, even better than in the picture. It is also very soft.
Will update after I've made something with it.
