Cascade Yarns Ultra Pima Meadow 3880

Cascade Yarns Ultra Pima Meadow 3880, 100% Mercerized Cotton, DK Weight

 Ultra Pima Meadow 3880 is a rich, soft modern light green. This somewhat neutral green is great for home decor, and particular a baby's room. Soft, smooth, and lustrous this 100% pima cotton  is what we prefer for summer tops, infant and toddler garments and great for knit or crochet toys.   Ultra Pima is officially approved for Knitted Knockers, a program that provides free, handmade breast prostheses for women after mastectomies or lumpectomies.

Ultra Pima is one of those cottons you’ll keep reaching for. It’s made from super-soft pima cotton and works beautifully year-round. This is a DK weight [3], so it’s right in that sweet spot for everything from lightweight sweaters to baby knits.

What really sets it apart is the mercerization process. It’s done differently than most cotton yarns, so you get that signature sheen without the usual stiffness. The result is a smoother, softer yarn that feels great in your hands and even better to wear.

It’s also machine washable, which makes it an easy choice for everyday pieces. And with so many colors to choose from, the natural shine of the yarn really comes through, giving your finished projects a clean, polished look.
