Cotton Blend Cake Yarn with Slow Color Gradients and Subtle Sparkle for Shawls and Wraps, 1000 m per 250 g Cake
Cotton blend cake yarn brings gradual color changes and a soft shimmer to knitted or crocheted shawls, wraps and summer garments. Its 96% cotton blend combines a soft feel with a fine glitter thread, adding sparkle without a prominent metallic texture.
Four gently twisted strands change color one at a time, allowing the gradient to develop slowly across your stitches. Each 250 g cake contains 1000 m of yarn, providing generous length for larger or intricate projects. Small knots mark the color changes in individual strands; you can work through them or cut and weave in the strand for a less visible finish.
