Description

The shawl in the photos was knitted using two identical yarn cakes (2 x 4-ply 450m). It was started at one corner, with increases made on one side during every right-side row. After switching to the second yarn cake, decreases were made on the same side during every right-side row.

Discover our high-quality gradient yarn cakes made from a comfortable blended yarn: 50% cotton and 50% acrylic. This composition ensures breathability, durability, and a soft feel – perfect for year-round knitting and crochet projects.

Versatility in Plies and Lengths

We offer the yarn cakes in 3, 4, or 5-ply strands – depending on the wishes and requirements of your project. The yarn lengths vary significantly, e.g., from 250m up to 5,000m per cake, ensuring you find the exact size for your project.

Easy Care & Sustainable

Our yarn consists of TVU cone yarn, which is tested for harmful substances. Items made from these yarn cakes are washable at 40 °C – so that your handmade pieces retain their beauty and shape even after many washes.

Why our yarn cakes are unique

Slow color gradients: Gentle to bold color transitions, ideal for shawls, scarves, tops, or accessories, without distracting color blocks.

Unplied strands: The individual strands run parallel (not twisted), which results in an even, fluid stitch pattern.

Large selection: With around 200 different color variants and various strand thicknesses, you are well-prepared for any project.

Nature & technology combined: Cotton provides breathability, while acrylic adds stability, low weight, and easy maintenance.

Sustainable production: Tested for harmful substances, durable, easy to care for – for long-lasting handicrafts.
