Cascade North Shore Prints is the self-striping version of Cascade's North Shore yarn: a DK-weight 100% acrylic with a polished sheen, elegant drape and a surprisingly soft feel. The color changes are built into the yarn, so stripes and patterns form on their own as you knit or crochet.
Each 100 g ball holds 220 yards, and it goes straight into the washer and dryer, which makes it an easy-care choice for gifts, kids' wear and everyday accessories.

Questions about North Shore Prints
Is North Shore Prints self-striping?
Yes. The color changes are dyed into the yarn, so stripes and patterns appear on their own. The width of the stripes depends on your stitch count.
Can I machine wash and dry it?
Yes. It is 100% acrylic: machine wash warm and tumble dry.
Is it good for socks?
It is soft and easy care. Acrylic does not have the stretch of wool, so knit socks with firm ribbing for a snug fit.
Is it good for people with wool allergies?
Yes. It contains no animal fibers.
