I really like this yarn for the baby sweaters I knit for charity. The colors are fun to combine, and the yarn is soft. It is machine washable, and my gauge is correct for the particular round yoke that in the pattern I use.

I really like knitting with Cascade Cherub DK. It is an acrylic/nylon blend and has what I consider a very nice feel - better than other acrylics I've used. The colors are gorgeous. My gauge is 26 stitches and 34 rows to 4 inches on US 5 needles. So far, I have used about 1 1/2 skeins and have found 1 knot. Nonetheless, I still like it for baby sweaters.

Great yarn with very good stitch definition. Wonderful for anyone who needs to avoid wool.
Really lovely colors and even as an acrylic it is nice to knit with. I use it for baby sweaters I knit for charity.

This is my favorite go to yarn when making items for babies. And for lightweight afghans also.
Nice yarn, easy to work with, nice colors
Wonderfully soft, love the color! Great for baby projects.
