I love this 50% cotton 50% wool yarn. It feels great in my hands and the drape is lovely!
Cascade Anchor Bay is a soft blend of cotton and Superwash Merino wool that's machine-washable! This DK weight yarn comes in a range of solid colors from neutrals to pastels to brights. This is a great yarn for warmer-weather wear—and its cable-plied construction gives it strength and roundness that will give you good stitch definition.
Please note: This yarn is now being produced in Turkey. Current stock is a blend of new and old production versions and may vary between colors.

I’ve knitted with this yarn before and like the softness and machine wash ability. However, the skeins I received from WEBS had an odd, musty odor to them. I’m still knitting with it but hope that the odor will come out with the first wash.
Works up beautifully and has great stitch definition
Color was deep and true. Yarn is soft and nice to work with for a summer top.
I knit a baby blanket with this yarn. It is easy to work with and the complete piece is beautiful.
Cascade Yarns Anchor Bay is just a little splitty, but it's affordable and knits up beautifully.
This yarn’s description was not as clearly labeled as “super wash” to get my attention. I typically avoid “super wash” yarns. After receiving my purchase, I decided to keep the yarn and use in the intended sweater pattern which was a mistake on my part. It grew exponentially. 😫
Great even stitching and nice fabric
This is a good choice for a child’s sweater.
I have used all the Cascade yarn products. I always know what to expect.
