New York Yarns' Olympic is a machine washable yarn that you wouldn't even know is mostly acrylic.

This worsted weight yarn will give your knitting and crochet a soft drape. The solid color scheme comes in some boldly fashionable colors (my favorite is Jade), which will give you stunning stitch definition, perfect for cable knitting and warm knitted sweaters.
