Caron Big Cakes Self Striping Yarn ~ 603 yd/551 m/10.5oz/300 g Each (Grape Jelly)

Caron yarn is always great to work with. It’s soft and doesn’t spilt often. This one is especially nice because the colors change for you. No need to weave in ends. The transitions to other colors is quite sudden. So, if you’re looking for a smooth transition this probably isn’t the right choice for your project.

Love this yarn soooooo much have bought lots of cakes of it for a variety of projects. The grape jelly is my favourite so far as love purple. Crochet ups well n washes easily. Still looks great after lots of wear.

This yarn is soft and easy to work with. I usually use a 5 or 6mm crochet hook but you could probably go a millimetre up or down on either side. The colours in person aren't quite what's represented on screen but in this case it doesn't matter. The issue I have with it is that the colour changes are really messy and inconsistent. There are a lot of ugly looking blotches on the yarn in places which is difficult to hide in the stitches.

I can buy 4 of the Caron Big Cakes at Micheals for less than buying the one advertised here. Sent it back.

Going to give as a gift to a person who likes to crochet shawls
