Cascade Ecological Wool

Cascade Ecological Wool® is an aran weight 100% Peruvian Highland wool yarn that delivers exceptional versatility for knitters and crocheters who want one yarn that does it all. This pure wool yarn works beautifully for traditional knitting projects like cozy sweaters, warm winter accessories, and chunky blankets that wrap you in natural fiber comfort. It's also wonderful for felting projects where you need reliable results. The generous 478-yard skein means fewer ends to weave in and more uninterrupted knitting time, while the substantial 250-gram put-up makes this wool ideal for larger projects like afghans, oversized cardigans, and felted bags that need yardage with fewer ends to weave in.

Cascade Eco Wool's Peruvian Highland wool brings that perfect balance of softness and structure: comfortable against the skin for wearable garments, yet sturdy enough to felt into dense, durable accessories like slippers, bowls, and market bags. This is versatile wool yarn for makers who appreciate natural fibers and want options—knit it loose for drape and flow, or felt it down for felted projects with body and strength. Whether you're crafting traditional Aran sweaters, quick-knit hats and mittens, or planning a felting adventure, Cascade Ecological Wool delivers authentic wool performance at an accessible price point.
