Cascade Yarns Anchor Bay Hand Paints

Description Anchor Bay Hand Paints blends 50% cotton with 50% superwash merino wool, giving you a yarn that feels cool in the hand while still offering gentle elasticity. The hand-painted colorways create subtle movement and visual interest without overwhelming your stitches, making it a great choice for tops, baby knits, shawls, and lightweight sweaters. It works comfortably across the DK to light-worsted range (#3–4), has easy care thanks to the washable merino, and delivers excellent stitch definition for both knit and crochet projects. If you’re looking for a breathable yarn with a soft, smooth finish and beautiful painterly colors, this base fits the bill. DETAILS Fiber: 50% Cotton / 50% Superwash Merino Wool Approx.
