This Blossom yarn is so pretty. I really want to try this. It crochets up so beautifuly. Thank you for your review. 💜🙏🏻
You are welcome Kathy
Thank you. I needed to know how the colour worked up before investing in this for a cardigan. You answered all my questions. 🥂
I have made four blankets in this yarn and am starting a fifth. It's my favorite yarn. I bought a 12 ball case from Michaels online for $100 so it worked out to more like $9 a ball. I use a 6mm hook. I hope they keep making this yarn and expand the colors.
Very nice. Like the muted colors.
Yes the Hobbii Horizon are more expensive but they also have 601 yards on the ball, with 19 color choices. Also they are a worsted DK, instead of a 4 weight.
Two of my favorite yarn attributes. Cotton blend and chainette! I'm really disappointed though because none of the Michaels anywhere near me carry the Blossom Caron Cakes. Plus, I promised myself I'd cutaway back on my yarn buying this year. However, just yesterday my thoughtful 9 year old asked if there is a yarn I really like, because he wants to buy it for me. So I may end up with that gorgeous green Blossom Cake. 🧶
I love how you review yarn. You do the WPI and each stitch, very thorough. Great job!
Thanks lisa
A colorful shawl would be nice.
The kitties are hilarious, “oh mom’s doing so that doesn’t involve us? Activate chaos mode!” 😂
You completely made my night.. lol the cats were hysterical. My animals do that too! Ps that was a very pretty yarn. I just started crocheting again after 28 years. I need a way to save money on this. Thank you!
Lol glad to make you smile!
Lovely stitch definition. I think this is something I need to get. I watched the shopping video, and this was my second favorite colorway. There are so many pretty colors in this one.
You're right about the first row being fiddly. It always is. Same with knitting. Once you can get the first row done, it's usually smooth sailing.
Got the giggles over your kitties. At least they weren't yowling and hissing at each other.
Nah they are sibling & rarely (almost never) do that
Love the colors of the blossom cakes. I enjoyed watching your review. It had great stitch definition. Thank you for sharing.
Yes the stitches really popped
I love the colors in this new yarn out! I cant wait to try it after watching your review! Thanks much kim! 👍💕 Enjoying your videos!
Hope you enjoy it! 🙌🏻
I was able to find some of this on a shopping trip yesterday. I have been trying to decide what to make with it. I was able to get three cakes and your video has helped me understand the short a bit more. Thank you.
I like the slow fading, too. Thanks for reviewing.
It really is stunning
Thanks for sharing the video on this new yarn. It looks good. Can’t wait to check it out.
Hope you like it! 😄
Oooh you have a fuzzy spot on your camera lens right where you were working. But I could still see well enough
Oopsie
I’d like to made a hexi cardigan with the blossom cakes
Oh that would be stunning Deb
Hi, fyi..the Hobbii Horizon yarn is 3ply with 601 yarn and 100% acrylic for $11.90. The only same is similar colors.
Thanks Patricia
Oh, I hate the first row, too! I ask the same thing if my cats wjen they get rambunctious!!! "What are you doing???" Then they stop... for a bit. Lol😅
🤣 oh cats, lol
Hi. I saw and felt this one on a recent trip to Michaels but didn’t buy it yet. I usually try to buy only when I have a project in mind. Loved the softness of it though and can’t wait to buy and work with it. Thanks for sharing!
It dies feel amazing
Thanks for this review. I don't need more yarn but those colors are gorgeous!
The colorway on that yarn is gorgeous!
I was waiting on a review of the blossom cakes,thanks Kim ,now if I can get some from Michael's or online,,can't wait to try..
You are so welcome! 👍🏻
This looks like a great yarn. I will have to look for it when I am at Micheals next. Thanks!
Best of luck Kristen
Thank you for showing this to us. It looks like nice yarn. I'll have to check it out. 🤗💖
It is so soft
@@AffordablyCrafty I might have to go tomorrow, if I have the time 🤞🤗
Thanks Kim!! Had to get me some today!!
Woohoo
I can't wait till they is in Austraya
I definitely felt it was thin like a 3 weight. That’s the only reason I didn’t buy it. It reminded me of cotton cakes, which I love. I bought the Cinnamon Swirl cakes, but haven’t tried them yet. They felt more like a regular 4 weight to me, which I prefer. Thanks for the review!
Thanks for the videos. I enjoy the content and manage to learn something new everyday!
So happy 🙌🏻
@Affordably Crafty since I've been unable to find an email address for you I going to put what I have to say here. I'm not sure how I offended you or your subscribers, but if I did, it was never intentional. And I apologize. That being said, it has become blatantly obvious that I am not wanted there. Which has hurt my feelings. But I'll get over that. It reminds me of a high school clique. Didn't like it then, don't like them now. So, I'll be unsubscribing from everyone's channel. I'm not going to go where I'm not wanted. I wish all of you good luck, and God bless.
Thank you for sharing this review
Thank you for the review, I really like this yarn just not the price
The Blossom Cakes remind me more of the Angel Cakes. I agree, the color selection for Blossom Cakes is great!
Hi Kim, they had a full display at the Plymouth Michaels just this weekend. The price per cake is kinda expensive. I'm going to wait until they go on sale to get some. Have a good day and thanks for the video.
really nice stitch definition.
Yes! 😻
I do love cotton cakes definition. I am making 2 sophies universe blankets and they crochet up so nice. Similar to blossom
Yes, I thought about Hobbii Horizon too. Hobbii Horizon cost $24 but they are on sale now for $11.90
Hmm…
I’ve bought all my horizon cakes for $9.90 or less on sale. They’re on sale often but most of the time now they’re $11.90 still less than Michaels. Hmmm
@@preciousbeautyj1043 when Michaels has a better sale than buy 3 ($39) get 1 free (not a bargain at all), we should be able to get them at a halfway decent price.
I like variegated yarns that have short colorways. I will try one.
Me too
It kind of reminds me of mandala ombre yarn
Great review as always Kim.
Thx for your review! The yarn is beautiful. The only thing I hate about using expensive yarn for projects is that if I use coupons to get a better deal, I risk not getting the same dye lot. They only let you use one coupon per transaction, per day. And my family would not be 'down' for helping me, I'm sure! 😒 Love the color transitions, tho! Thx, Kim! 😊👍🧶
I bought the same color as you ! It is super soft
Great minds, lol
I'm using the Blossom Cakes for TL yarncrafts Bahama blanket and it's working up really nicely. 20٪ coupon plus rewards at Michael's brought the price down to just over 8$ per skein which I thought was reasonable.
Oooh good price, nice job 🙌🏻
Thank you for showing this
You are welcome
I can hardly wait to get my hands on both of the new cakes. As for the blossom cakes, I have watched several reviews on it and no one has mentioned the similarities to ice picasso yarn. Its not shiny like picasso but the style is exactly the same with the chain spun construction and the halo. I love the color transition too.
Oooh thanks for the info. What is the fiber content of the ice yarn?
@@AffordablyCrafty Ice Yarn Picasso is 44% Acrylic, 56% Polyester
Crystal at BOD mentioned that it was similar to Picasso. I’m sure she did.
@@preciousbeautyj1043 yes she did.
I was in Michael’s today & I saw these new yarns. I agree the blossom cakes was very soft! The cinnamon cake was not nearly as soft. I do not have a 40% off coupon in my app, I have a 30% off😢. I was disappointed that the only yarn on sale was 30% off the other Caron cakes. Nothing else on sale!
Maybe you’ll get one next week Mary
Just got some from michaels mine has blue dot
Make the shawl on the label
i had no idea that it had cotton...i think thats a big reason theyre popular?. the one i was going to get from hobbii which has a similar yardage and cotton x acrylic is so expensive. i think they would be nice for florida? i havent made anything super big with just cotton but i need to move around and have the flexibility of acrylic right? xD, i liked the transission of that cake, i though it wasnt really for me but i actually like it. now i need to go to michaels :( lol they are at 12 but with second 50% off is that good or should i wait LOL
$2 for a Caron cake is amazing! The Caron cakes are now $15 each in Canada!
IM trying to get some no one has any
I just got an email with a 40% coupon, woo hoo 🙌 😀
Woot woot
I don't have a 40% coupon 😔
Sign up to receive emails from Michael's and they will email you the coupon
hope i answered this question for you in the chat
@@AffordablyCrafty yes, thanks
The 40% off coupon does not come from your app. It will come in an e-mail, so make sure you sign up for rewards and then separately for the email ( your rewards will come thru the app once you become a rewards member, but you still must sign up for the email)
