Cascade Yarns Heritage Orchid 5757
Cascade Yarns Heritage -Orchid #5757
“Olive Branch 5754” is a muted, natural olive-green — a soft, earthy green, similar to the muted green of olive leaves or a gentle, toned-down moss-olive shade. It’s a subtle, understated green — not neon or overly bright — making it a versatile neutral-leaning color rather than a bold statement.
Cascade's Heritage isn't just for socks! While it's my best-selling sock yarn, its versatility has made it a favorite for much more—shawls, baby garments, and lightweight tops are all popular projects. Whether you knit or crochet, this yarn creates a fabric with an exceptional feel. The touch of nylon adds durability, and because it's designed for socks, it’s incredibly washable too! Plus, the color selection is both stunning and constantly evolving, ensuring there's always something fresh to inspire your next creation.
