Let your creativity flow with Sultan Pastello: a stunning cotton cake yarn that brings soft texture and breathtaking colour transitions to every stitch.

Sultan Pastello is made from 100% pure, soft cotton and features a unique construction of 4 untwisted strands. The yarn is designed with beautiful long colour changes, shifting gently from one hue to the next. The transitions happen gradually, one strand at a time, creating a subtle gradient effect. Where the colour shift occurs, you will notice a small knot in one of the four threads: a natural part of the yarn's construction. Many crafters work right past it, but you can also trim and weave in the end for an even smoother finish.

The Pastello palette is soft, muted, and refined. Each cake begins with a slightly more contrasted shade at the center, then fades gently into a lighter, more delicate tone, often ending in a soft pastel or white at the outer edge. The result is an elegant, tonal effect that adds a quiet sophistication to any project.

Its construction gives the yarn a light, airy drape and makes it especially suited for projects where flow and movement matter. Such as shawls, afghans, baby blankets, and summery garments. With a generous 800 metres per 200-gram cake, most shawls and scarves can be completed with just one cake. It is a perfect match for those who love large, continuous pieces with minimal ends to weave in.

Sultan Pastello is your go-to yarn for airy, elegant creations with unforgettable, softly fading colour stories.

The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2076-311). Find more information about the certification at https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/

Pro tip: Before using the Sultan skein, run all 4 strands through a small bead, so the strands are aligned throughout the project.

I will say that this yarn requires patience, but if you have that then this yarn is wonderful to work with. Like the description says, using a bead or something similar will help with the loose strands. This was my first time using a yarn that didn't have the threads spun together, and there was some splitting, especially at the start of my project, but it got better once I got used to the yarn and the project developed a little. The yarn itself is not the softest cotton I've ever felt, but it is soft and the stitch definition is really nice. I ordered the 06 and 07 colours to make shawls with and the colours are true to the photos on here. If I could give it 4.5 stars I would, but the issues I've mentioned are very minor and I have given it 5 stars based on the fact that I would buy this again.

I used the Sultan Pastello 03 Mulberry for the Deluxe Baby Blanket pattern by Hobbii. I managed 22 rows of shells vs the 23 the pattern calls for with the longer, deluxe cake. The yarn itself is lovely to work with, but I definitely recommend threading it through a bead or something similar to keep the strands together while working. I put it through the washing machine at 30 degrees and blocked it, no issues at all. The color gradient is beautiful, and I’d use this yarn again for another ombré project! Everyone I’ve showed my project to is impressed by the color changes and I tell them that the yarn does all the work for me!

I purchased this yarn around a week ago in 2 different colours - 02, grape and 03, mulberry. Honestly - It's one of the most beautiful yarns I have ever came across! The colours are stunning and it is SO soft! Fine but strong yarn. I bought enough mulberry to weave a blanket ☺ so hopefully (after I move house next month) I'll be able to steal ahead with that, and I will be able to post a picture of the finished article before long.
Can't wait to buy more! Highly recomended yarn. ☺
Thank you l, Hobbii!

I have used 4 sultan pastello cakes and they create a lovely soft finished product. I thought it would end up rough for some reason, but nope, soft soft soft! I have worked from the center and outside, and had no issues. The ply not being twisted hasn't been too much of an issue, the bead trick works great, and if center pulling, pop a glass in the middle of the cake to help it keep it's shape.

First time user of these cake yarns, i had luckily seen the wool was split into strands so knew what to expect. I’m a newbie in the crochet world so a little bead helped me keep the strands together. I loved the ombré effect it was beautiful on a baby blanket. The yarn worked up beautifully and soft and the recipient loved the finished product. Ordered more :)
