What is Cakes?
Caron Cakes is a light from Caron. Composition: 100% acrylic. One skein holds 532 m of yarn and weighs 200 g.
How the yarn behaves
Cake-format self-striping yarn with wool added to an acrylic base. The wool gives noticeable warmth, memory and a softer hand than pure-acrylic cakes; the long colour transitions handle the visual interest. One cake usually covers a small shawl or sweater front. Stitch definition stays decent under the colour shifts; plain stockinette and single crochet read the gradient best. Machine wash gentle and dry flat to protect the wool component from felting.
