Baby Cashmerino is a longtime knitter favorite for all manner of items for babies and children, and one touch will show you why. This blend of wool, acrylic, and cashmere is velvety soft and smooth enough to be next to delicate baby skin while also being machine-washable to make it easy on caregivers. Choose from an incredible palette of colors and create a mini layette set that will wrap a new baby in a handmade hug! All projects are knit flat from the bottom up and seamed.
