Not for me
I didn't end up working with it because I didn't like the feel of it. It felt too much like acrylic. I got a yarn that contained only natural fiber.
Cascade Yarns Pacific Chunky is the heavier-weight cousin of Pacific—it's the same soft, machine-washable blend of acrylic and superwash Merino wool with a gorgeous sheen, only in a quick-working bulky weight. This is a great yarn for accessories like hats and cowls!.

This yarn works up very quickly. 1 skein easily makes a hat. Stitches show good definition for more showy patterns.
Nice yarn, doesn’t split and blocks well with steam. My project turned out very nice. I will use it again when pattern calls for chunky.
Probably my favorite yarn ever. Love the quality, the color availability, and the weight. I'm not a complex knitter, so for the projects I do, it just enhances the whimsy & look of my preferred hat patterns. (Picture: hat pattern credit goes to Fox & Pine Stitches).
The yarn was perfect for my project and worked up nicely. Mostly I made toboggans. I would have given it a 5 star rating if it had been softer. However, for toboggans, having "body" and easy care is definitely a plus.
I have made particular sweater for both of my grandchildren 6 times in different colors and sizes. It washes easily and stands up to hard play.
I donate hats for children and adults where two churches in Chicago know where they are needed and this is the yarn I love to use.
lovely colors, this yarn is a joy to work with. It is getting difficult to find good, basic wool and the superwash is a plus.
This is one of my favorite chunky yarns. I hope Cascade doesn't stop making this yarn and that they stay with the quality I've experienced in the past years.
Great moderately priced yarn. I’ve used it for blankets and children’s sweaters.
