Caron Cloud Cakes

Finding Fluffy Bliss with Caron’s Dreamiest Cakes

As a passionate crocheter and knitter, I’m always on the lookout for exciting new yarns to fuel my crafting obsession. Lately, I’ve had my eye on the deliciously dreamy Caron Cloud Cakes. This yarn looks so squishy soft and the color gradients are absolutely stunning!

I’ll admit, I’m completely swooning over the Caron Cloud Cakes line. But before taking the plunge and buying these cloud-like cakes, I wanted to do my research to make sure they’d live up to the hype. Here’s what I discovered after diving into the world of Caron Cloud Cakes Yarn!

Where To Buy TheseLittle Fluff Balls of Joy

The best part about Caron Cloud Cakes is that they’re readily available at most major craft stores. I spotted them at Michael’s, Joann’s, and even my local yarn shop!

You can also find a nice selection of colors online at Amazon, Herrschners, Yarn.com, and Craftsy. The price tends to be pretty consistent across retailers – usually around $6.99 to $7.99 per cake.

So Much Yardage in Each Colorful Cake

One of the coolest things about Caron Cloud Cakes is that each cake packs a whopping 360 yards of yarn! That’s a lot more yardage than your average skein.

This abundant yardage means you can often complete an entire project with just 1 or 2 cakes. Talk about getting a lot of bang for your buck!

The Perfect Weight for Cozy Projects

After analyzing the specs, I found Caron Cloud Cakes are classified as a #3 light weight yarn. This makes them an excellent choice for lighter garments and accessories like scarves, shawls, and cowls.

The light weight also means these cakes have a beautiful drape when used for garments. And they won’t end up being too heavy or bulky when worked into stitch patterns.

A Blend of Acrylic and Nylon for Softness and Durability

Caron Cloud Cakes have a base mixture of 80% acrylic and 20% nylon. This blend produces a yarn that feels oh-so-soft to the touch. The plush acrylic mimics the fluid drape of natural fibers. And the nylon lends just a bit of durability to help projects hold their shape.

A Dreamy Spectrum of Self-Striping Colorways

One of my favorite things about Caron Cloud Cakes is the amazing colors! Each cake gradients through rich, jewel-toned hues that transition from shade to shade.

The colors stripe and pool together in a mesmerizing way when stitched up. It creates a vibrancy that really pops in finished pieces. Some top shades I’m eyeing are Fairy Cake, Blue Hawaii, and Grape Soda. The colors are so dreamy!

Perfect For Cozy Shawls, Blankets, Cowls and More!

After scoping out completed projects, I’m convinced Caron Cloud Cakes are ideal for shawls, blankets, cowls, and light sweaters. The colors blend together into magical pools that just work up beautifully with simple stitch patterns.

I’m itching to use these cakes for a chunky knit blanket or a big, cozy shawl to curl up in. The colors lend themselves perfectly to fun, boho chic accessories too!

Follow Free Patterns Made Just for These Cakes

One of the best resources I came across in my research was the Caron Cloud Cakes section on the Yarnspirations website. They have gorgeous free patterns designed specifically for these cakes.

The patterns include beautiful shawls, cowls, hats, scarves, blankets, and more. Definitely worth browsing for inspiration on your next Caron Cloud Cakes project!
