INTRODUCTION
Get Creative with Cotton Cotton yarn has undeniable appeal. It’s soft, wearable in any weather, affordable and easy to care for, and great for knitters who are allergic or prefer not to use animal fibers. This latest entry in the bestselling 60 Quick Knits series is the biggest and best collection ever of knitwear designs created specifically for cotton. There are plenty of warm-weather projects—including pretty tanks, lacy shrugs, and openwork scarves and hats—but also traditional winter knits like mitts and cowls, as well as bags and other accessories to enjoy year-round. And they’re all made with Cascade Yarns’ Ultra Pima line of high-quality but affordable and machine-washable cotton yarns, which come in two weights and a multitude of stunning solid and handpainted colorways. The beauty and practicality of these projects will confirm what knitters already know: cotton is a fabulous fiber.
