This 1000-metre gradient yarn cake is perfect for projects where you want beautiful colour transitions to really stand out. The carefully coordinated shades flow gradually from one colour into the next, creating a soft and playful gradient as you crochet or knit.
The yarn consists of four strands that run alongside each other without being twisted together. As the colours change, the strands gradually transition from one shade to the next, creating a beautiful blend across six different colours. Woven through the yarn is a delicate lurex thread, adding a subtle shimmer and a touch of glamour to your finished project. ✨
The combination of the gradual colour changes and the sparkling lurex thread makes this yarn especially beautiful in scarves, shawls and other projects where both the colour transitions and subtle sparkle can really shine. But there is so much more you can create with it! Use it for cosy blankets, garments, accessories and all kinds of crochet and knitting projects for both children and adults.
The combination of 50% cotton and 50% acrylic makes the yarn soft, comfortable to work with and wonderfully versatile. The lurex thread adds that little extra sparkle without overpowering the beautiful colours.
And the best part? You get to choose the direction of your colour gradient yourself. Start from the centre of the cake to work through the colours in their original order, or start from the outside to reverse the progression. This means you can go from dark to light instead of light to dark, for example.
The same yarn cake can therefore create a completely different look depending on where you start. Perfect for anyone who loves experimenting with colour and adding a little extra sparkle to their handmade creations!
Please note that colours may appear slightly different in reality due to individual screen settings.
