Caron baby cakes

Over the summer, I made a baby blanket for a baby girl.  I used Caron “Baby” Cakes yarn.  To say that I love this yarn is an understatement, it’s so soft and very easy to work with.  I loved the colors as well.

Here is the baby blanket for the baby girl:

Frosted Pansies

 

I love this yarn, the color changes automatically throughout the cake, so the only time you have to “change” the yarn is when you start a new cake.

Then this month, I made a baby boy blanket for my nephew and his girlfriend.  Their baby is expected in early November.  I used Caron Baby Cakes yarn again, this time in Fresh Air.

A note here, when I went back to Michael’s to purchase more Caron Baby Cakes, I found this yarn in the clearance bin and when I asked if they were getting more, I was told “no” by the sales associate.   She said if it was in the clearance bin, then no.  That is a shame because the yarn is beautiful.  I was able to pick enough yarn out of the bin for one more baby blanket (colors would be for a baby girl), I have not yet started that blanket.

Here is the baby boy blanket, made with Caron Baby Cakes in Fresh Air:

I like the colors in Frosted Pansies better but again, I love how this yarn is easy to work with and how it comes out.
