We have worked extra hard to be able to offer you this gorgeous cake yarn, especially for Black Friday.
The texture of this yarn is 4 thin cotton threads which make it perfect for shawls, afghans, and scarves, where the long color changes will come out perfectly. Of course, you can also use the yarn for smaller projects; the gradual color shift, however, does look better with larger projects. You’ll get a whole 200 g pr. Skein which has a running length of 800 m.
We have received several beautiful shades for you, which we hope you’ll appreciate and get started with knitting or crocheting some lovely colorful projects.
Pro tip: Before you start working with Cotton Cake, run all 4 treads through a small bead to help the threads stay together throughout the project.
NB: We have only received limited stock, so it’s only available while stocks last.

I brought 6 of these back in 2021 and finally this year converted them into a mosaic crochet blanket. I thought using the mosaic technique would work perfectly with this finer weight yarn, which it did. As I was not working from a pattern, but designing as I went I loved the ability to easily remove sections of the cake when I wanted a particular colourway. This yarn being 100% cotton the finished blanket washed beautifully and should be harder wearing than acrylic. Loved this yarn and the wonderful colours which give such opportunity for creativity to flourish.

Really beautiful and vibrant colours. I bought one cake of the blue and lilac and my crochet shawl is turning out really well. Even though the yarn is 4 seperate strands the stitch definition is really nice (US double). Would highly recommend.

OMG this yarn is beautiful! I have bought 4 of these and they are just gorgeous! The colours are bright and the changes are gradual. It's lovely to work with and glides on my hooks.
I'm making a shawl for my daughter and its really soft.

Gorgeous colours and lovely quality, I can sometimes struggle with the lose threads so I use a bead, pull the treads through the bead, the bead will then hold the threads together which makes it easier to use.

I ordered 08 last year, still haven't found the right pattern to use it on (yet) but the colours are gorgeous and vibrant, definitely one to make with a project you or someone you love will cherish.
