I am making a baby blanket out of it, and it works up amazing. I converted the Rosebud shawl from Tin Can Knits into a square baby blanket. I was looking for a washable cotton yarn, and this fit my criteria. It’s still in progress. Beautiful stitch definition.
I'm using the Sarasota yarn to make a tote bag with multiple granny squares. I like the color selection. I am having trouble with loose threads when I am doing double crochet stitches. I think it is because I hold the yarn too tight. I plan to use a whip stitch through the back loops.
Cascade Yarns Sarasota Worsted has a soft feel and easy to work with. The color is very consistent. I highly recommend this yarn if you’re looking for an easy care cotton/acrylic worsted yarn.
The yarn feels nice, but it is very loosely spun so that it comes apart a lot. Also, there are knots in the skeins where they attached new yarn. 1 - 2 of the knots are in each skein.
I'm using it for knitting a Christmas blanket. I like the stitch definition, colors, and price.
The yarn is so soft and the color is beautiful. It is a beautiful shade of green/blue and will be great for summer. I will be making a sweater with lacy sleeves.
I love the color and feel. I have not started a project but I'm using it for a pull over sweater.
The yarn is not worsted weight. It's called Sarasota Worsted, but it's a #3. I got what was supposed to be a charcoal/dark grey and a silver, but the charcoal is so light that I thought it was the silver initially. The colors are also nowhere near what they present. It's completely useless for my purposes. I use it for a blanket.
I thought perhaps that the Cascade Sarasota might be a better quality of cotton than what I have been able to find locally. St. Louis is down to Hobby Lobby and Michaels, which don't have quality fibers. Your sale on the Sarasota is what drew me. However, the yarn itself is less than what I had expected. It splits easily, which slows me down. It's just OK. I was going to make a light summer cardigan, but moved on to something else. I haven't used the Sarasota since. I'm sure I'll use it for...
Very nice cotton/linen blend. I am using if for a summer top. The weight is perfect and it is nice to work with. I ove the depth of the color.
