CaronCakes -200g- Rainbow Sprinkles

I do have a love for the Caron Cakes, as it stops me getting bored, due to the change in colours. This particular one, the Rainbow Sprinkles is obscenely bright, but I didn’t experience as much bleedthrough of other/odd random colours as I have done in previous.The only issues I’m finding with the Caron Cakes, which are getting to be a real bugbear of mine, is not every ball starts/finishes with the same colour. Which is a real annoyance when you come to change balls, as it doesn’t “flow” correctly.The other bugbear is they make it really hard to find the beginning of the wool, particularly as I find it easier to start from the middle and work my way out. I literally have to take the whole middle section of colour out, in order to find the end. This should be easy to find or should be sticking up. May not be an annoyance for others, but it is for me.This makes for a really nice throw/blanket, by using some white and pink to break up the pattern a little.Out of all of the ones I have reviewed so far, this is one of my favourites, simply because there was t as much bleedthrough. You may need to wear sunglasses however, while crocheting.

Not happy. Warning to everyone. Check batch number.This ball, although label is exactly the same etc, looks and feels like a different yarn recipe than my older ball. This yarn is thinner, paler, shinier and cheaper looking than my previous batch number ball. Whats more is that the blanket I was crocheting is now not finished good at all, you can see it looks like a dufferent make of yarn.

It's just gorgeous if you have the write pattern. Try the hypnotic tiles afghans on youtube. It taking getting used to but the wool is perfect for it and result is also gorgeous. It's magical to work with. I would like to know if a thick version is made. Caon Cakes also comes in a bigger size called Caron Cakes Big which is even better for never having to change colours.

I’m a firm fan of Caron Cakes yarns and this one didn’t disappoint! Colours are great and used this to make my daughter a fab colourful cushion

Not the cheapest - hence four stars rather than five - but comfortable to work. Really soft feel and vibrant colours.
