What’s the Stitch About Knitting Machines?
Let's talk about knitting machines! What are they, how do they work, and does it count as hand crafting if you use one? Why choose a knitting machine vs knitting by hand?
Your new favorite sock yarn! A blend of superwash merino wool and nylon, Heritage by Cascade Yarns is a super-soft, durable yarn that can be machine washed and thrown in the dryer! Heritage has amazing stitch definition. With 437 yards and an array of colors, this yarn is great for one skein projects, such as socks, mitts and other fun accessories. Pair your favorite variegated or hand-dyed skein with one of Heritage's rainbow of solids to achieve the perfect contrast for that shawl pattern you've been itching to get your hook or needles into.

Bob Dunbadin founded the Cascade Yarns in the late 1980s. From their humble Pioneer Square beginnings in Seattle, Washington, they have moved and expanded, but have never lost their commitment to affordable, high-quality yarns.
In a time when most high-quality yarn was being crafted in Europe, Cascade instead looked to Peru. Cascade has always believed that so long as the materials and spinning equipment were high quality, and the workers well trained and happy, good yarn can come from anywhere.
A family-owned business since the beginning, Cascade is now run by Bob Dunbadin's son Rob and daughter-in-law Shannon. They continue Cascade's mission to offer exceptional quality yarn for an exceptional price.
