Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash Wave – Self-Striping Worsted Yarn
Meet the yarn that does the color work for you. Cascade 220 Superwash Wave takes the beloved 220 Superwash base and adds long, gradual color shifts that create stunning self-striping effects — no extra effort required. Whether you choose a high-contrast colorway for bold, graphic stripes or a tonal palette for a more subtle, painterly effect, Wave delivers visual interest that elevates even the simplest stitch patterns.
Full color transitions happen gradually over approximately 1,000 yards, meaning your color changes are smooth and sweeping rather than abrupt — perfect for larger projects like sweaters, blankets, and shawls.

I've made several garter stitch surprise baby jackets over the years. (Elizabeth Zimmerman pattern) The gentle stripes formed by this lovely verigated yarn beats planning stripes. Nice to knit, as well. Plus it's perfect for parents who will not be hand washing the resulting beautiful sweater. Great product!!
Excellent price on this yarn very happy will definitely be back to Apple yarns, shipping very reasonable
I love it! It's so fun working with high quality yarn. Makes knitting easier.
This yarn was wonderful. I made a sweater for my Grandson and it came out so well. So soft yet sturdy for a little boy.
Beautiful and super soft.
