Cascade "Leisure" is an oddly named, but beautiful combination of Superfine Alpaca and Peruvian Pima Cotton. "Leisure" is a worsted weight yarn. This yarn is referred to as "boucle," which is a yarn with an uneven, knobby texture. This fiber when knitted has an interesting twist to it. Some have called alpaca "the new cashmere." Once you feel the softness of this yarn, you will likely agree. Cascade discontinued "Leisure" in the Fall of 2005. The "Bulky" version is still in production. I currently have both available. The only difference between the two is the Gauge & the yardage. MSRP $13.50 a skein.
These are sample sweaters knit in this yarn.
