Three or four strands are held together while winding and are not spun together or twisted. Colours are changed at set rates and attached by a tiny knot, creating long slow changes of colour. Perfect for various projects, from scarves and blankets to ponchos and sweaters.
The centre pull balls may be worked from either the centre or the outside. Knots are very secure and ends may be clipped or worked into the fabric. They will virtually disappear into the fabric.
Recommended crochet hook: 3 – 5
Recommended needles: 3 – 4.5
Customer Reviews
Cannon believe this yarn, I have crocheted for many years and never enjoyed working with a yarn as much as I have with this yarn.
Absolutely ingenuous, a simple idea that blends the colours perfectly.
As I am just finishing my throw, my mind is full of ideas for my next project.
Being able to create your own Cake gives you the opportunity to mix the colours of your choice.
Absolutely inspirational 😀
Great colours but as is unspun the yarn is very hard to work with. Struggling at the moment, wouldn't buy again. Steep learning curve.
Lovely colour and feel, but wished my yarn cake arrived as one. The 4 colours I selected for a cake came as two cakes. Which is fine it's all the same thing technically but it's nice to just have less ends and also nice to see the cake as one cake.
I have created a custom yarn cake (ombre but very similar tones) from four shades of red from a slightly pink red, to classic fire engine red (Christmas red) to darker red and burgundy. The yarn is very pretty, I know its quality as I have done several projects with it and know it works for me. I would certainly recommend it as choosing the colours was lots of fun and it is not difficult with respect to setting up your online order. It was very exciting experience to see and work with my own design yarn. It also costs the same as pre-selected yarn cake. The only thing that I wasn't sure of was whether the shades of colours will be as those online as in the past I have found some difference in colour intensities (which is obviously affected by various aspects) and there is not a sampler that could be purchased. When I order a premade cake I often wish to know the numbers of the colours so I could use them in the future. Other than that I was very pleased and made a beautiful crochet shawl and the process gave me lots of joy.
Love your yarns 😍 used for a rainbow birthday shawl for my friend here was the only place I could find what I needed thanks custom yarn cakes! (He loved the shawl too soon soft)
