I am now obsessed with yarn cakes! (Not that I didn’t have a yarn obsession before, I think all Crochet Queens have) but this is a whole new kind of excitement.
I’m constantly comparing shades and soaking up ideas from everywhere around me. I don’t know where to start!!
So, as I have been scanning Pinterest for inspiration and creating my own design…I came across these!! WOW! I want to try them all!!
The colours are just soooo beautiful and blend so well with the patterns. I had to share!
I think I will be starting my next project with one of these designs and cant wait to have a new accessory to sport this Spring 🙂
There are literally hundreds of great designs all totally deserving a share, I have whittled it down to just 25 – it was no easy task!
Please let me know if you try any, I would love to see your projects xx

This pattern was designed with Scheepies Whirl, but you are free to use your favourite yarn, of course. I would recommend using fingering weight yarn. Using a different weight could or will require adjustments that I cannot provide in this pattern. Feel free to mix and match your favourite colours and your favourite yarn, use your own creativity!

Faerie Mist Hooded Scarf by oombawka designs
The Faerie Mist Hooded Scarf is crocheted with a 5 mm (H) hook and 2 balls of Caron Cakes Yarn. This project is easy and only uses basic stitches (single crochet, half double crochet and double crochet. The placement of the stitches gives the scarf beautiful texture and softness. The Caron Cakes Yarn I used is called Faerie Cakes and I love it because of the ombre shades of blues which flow into one another.

Strawberry patch scarf by left in knots
This pattern is a modern scarf that is light and airy and perfect for spring! I call it a convertible scarf because you can also use it as a shoulder wrap-which is also a perfect accessory for cool spring days or even cool summer nights.
Chroma Scarf by Left in Knots
If you like simple projects this will be a great one for you! There is a bit of counting at the beginning and end of the scarf (a stitch marker will help!) but the middle is all nice and easy DC stitches. You can of course use any colour of yarn that you’d like, but look at how pretty this Mandala yarn is when it’s worked up <3 I am always a sucker for bright colours, but this scarf would look great made in a solid colour or neutrals as well if that is more your style!

If you want to make one yourself, that’s easy! All you have to do is follow the instructions for my Vintage sweet shawl until the shawl is the desired size. That’s all!

The Bella Vita Shawl is a simple and elegant triangle crochet shawl made with a gradient colour changing yarn cake. It features double crochet stitches, chains and puff stitches. The pattern is a repeat of 15 rows with 75 rows in total plus a border.
Spring Bean cowl by Little Monkeys crochet
What’s really great about this pattern is that it uses all of your Mandala cake without leaving any wasted yarn. That’s always a win for me (and for my overflowing yarn shelf)!
