I'm thinking of making yet another CPH, this time using Cascade Ecological Wool and would love to hear everyone's reactions... Is the yarn too heavy, too different in gauge, etc? I think I could knit the smaller size instructions and it would yield the proper size for me, but I'm not sure.
Thanks in advance for your opinions!

I used the Eco wool for a Retro Redux shrug and it was great! Good feel to it. I found it was like a heavy worsted and that would be great for this pattern. Good deal too, you have to wind it in 2 balls it has so much yardage!
Thank you! I still have some stuff OTN now, but I'd love to make another CPH!!
