I LOVE Cascade Eco+ and Ecological Wool. These non-superwash Highland wool has a beautifully authentic feel, very similar to Sandnes Garn’s Fritidsuld or Peer Gynt—the classic Norwegian-style wools with the same sturdy, traditional character.

Cascade Ecologocal Wool collection is offered in natural, undyed colors that highlight the fiber in its purest form. This Cascade favorite is the undyed sister to Cascade Eco+.

Note: Some colors may not show up on your computer as they actually are.

Spun from 100% Peruvian wool, this Aran- to chunky-weight yarn delivers excellent stitch definition and blocks beautifully. Eco+ is ideal for heirloom-quality garments, cozy outerwear, accessories, and felted projects, making it a favorite for knitters of all ages. Each generous 250-gram skein offers over 475 yards, making it both economical and highly versatile, and it’s available in a beautiful range of solid shades and soft heathers. It also works wonderfully as a substitute for Hjertegarn Natur Uld.

Thanks to the large skein size, most sweater/cardigan projects require only two to three skeins. As an example, I used just two skeins to knit the oversized PetiteKnit Champagne Cardigan (size M), holding it together with a lace-weight baby Suri alpaca for extra softness and nice drape.
