Plymouth Encore Worsted Yarn
Description
Description
Plymouth Encore is beloved by many as 'America's most popular yarn' and with good reason. This tried-and-true machine washable yarn is a classic for afghans, blankets, and sweaters. Encore is soft enough for children's sweaters, yet tough enough to be washed time and time again with great results. Use in any pattern calling for worsted weight or light worsted weight yarn. With so many colors to choose from, you'll never run out of projects to do in Encore!
Many synthetic yarns have that slightly “scrunchy/shiny thing” going on, but not so with Encore, so it's perfect when you're looking for a high-quality, economical option for accessories or much larger projects. Good stitch definition and less pilling than many similar yarns make this a go-to favorite.
Weavers: A great pattern weft with Pearl Cotton or similar set at 10 epi
