This 1000-metre gradient yarn cake is made for projects that deserve a little something extra. The beautiful colour transitions are combined with a delicate lurex strand running through the yarn, adding a subtle touch of sparkle and a gorgeous glamour effect to your finished project.
The four main strands are left untwisted and run alongside each other, creating a unique colour effect as you work. Instead of a sudden colour change, the shades gradually blend and shift, creating soft transitions that become beautifully visible in your crochet or knitting.
The added lurex thread catches the light as you work, giving the yarn a little extra shimmer without taking away from the colour gradient. It is especially lovely in scarves, shawls and accessories, but you can also use it for garments, blankets and other projects when you want to add a touch of sparkle.
Made from a 50% cotton and 50% acrylic blend, this yarn is soft, comfortable to work with and versatile enough for all kinds of projects. The generous 1000-metre cake gives you plenty of yarn to create something truly special.
And there is a fun little trick hidden in the way you use your cake: you can choose the direction of your colour gradient yourself! Start from the centre to work through the colours in the original order, or start from the outside to reverse the progression. This means the same cake can give you a completely different result, depending on where you begin.
Whether you are looking for a beautiful gradient, a little sparkle, or both, this cake yarn is perfect for adding a touch of glamour to your next handmade creation. ✨
