Baby Cashsoft Worsted from Rowan combines superwash extrafine merino, acrylic, and cashmere in a worsted weight that manages to be both genuinely luxurious and practically minded. The cashmere contributes exceptional softness, the extrafine merino adds elasticity and structure, and the acrylic (often underappreciated in a blend like this) provides durability and helps the yarn hold its shape through washing. The colour palette is reminiscent of the Arts and Crafts movement: rich, considered tones with a historical depth that suits the quality of the yarn. Superwash treated and machine washable on a gentle cycle: unusually practical for a yarn with cashmere in it.

great at: A polite hedonist loves luxury but keeps its manners. These yarns are made from indulgent fibres that feel wonderful to work with and create soft, wearable fabrics: luxury that behaves itself beautifully.
