I originally tried this yarn because it had colors for two of the Harry potter school houses. My daughter and her college mate wanted scarfs. I fell in love with the yarn. It's resonably priced and its soft and easy to work with

Not splitty and really nice to knit with. Cascade 220 yarn always fits the bill when I'm looking for a good selection of colors and a high quality basic wool yarn at a fair price.

I really like this yarn for pillows. The stitches are wonderfully lofty, and with crisp stitch delineation, which is perfect for both colourwork and cables.

Another great yarn. Working up the Beethoven Shawl by Marsha Ward for my sister-in-law for 2013 Birthday gift. It looks fantastic! I plan on adding some beads to this one.

Positives_Good yardage for the price and easy to knit with it! One negative_Some of the Cascade 220 yarns I have worked with, especially 7828 Neon Yellow, are NOT colorfast, and have the potential to bleed. This problem was not noticeable with a practice swatch in cold water, however, when I hand blocked my recently finished Neon Yellow and White baby blanket Churchmouse Garter Blocks Baby Blanket pattern using cold water, the knitted fabric suffered from yellow dye bleeding onto some of the white squares :-
