Cascade Yarns Heritage Alloy 5780
Cascade Yarns Heritage Sock - Alloy #5780
The “Alloy 5780” color is a soft, neutral grey — think of a medium-light steel or dove grey. It’s subtle, understated, and versatile, making it easy to pair with other colors or allow stitch patterns (lace, cables, texture) to shine.
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.
