Our take on the Caron Upside Down Cakes Yarn, Soft Acrylic Yarn for Knitting, Crochet, Weaving & Arts and Crafts, Medium Weight (4), 100% Acrylic Yarn, 8 oz/227g, 403 yd/369m, Super Slushy, 6 Pack

Caron Upside Down Cakes is a medium worsted weight (4) 100% acrylic yarn wound in large cakes. Each cake carries 8 oz / 227 g and 403 yd / 369 m, so one cake covers a hat, scarf or small blanket section without joining. The acrylic is machine washable and dryable, which suits blankets, sweaters and kids' items that see regular washing. Against cotton or wool blends it is cheaper to work with and easier to care for, but it lacks their breathability and stitch definition; against finer sock-weight yarns it works up faster on larger needles. Reviewers of the Upside Down Cakes line generally like the soft hand and the long color repeats, and some report knots or joins within a cake.
