Caron Big Cakes is a 100% acrylic medium-weight (4) yarn sold in a 300 g skein with about 603 yards, roughly double a standard Caron Cake. It is a self-striping yarn, so the color changes come from the ball itself, which suits blankets, throws and other large home projects with few joins. The wool-free acrylic is machine washable and dryable, making it easy care compared with wool blends. Knitters and crocheters rate it well overall; the common complaints are dye-lot variation between skeins and the occasional knot or thick spot in the ball.
