Our take on the Queensland Rainbow Cake Sport Yarn

Queensland Rainbow Cake is a 200 g cake of 100% organic cotton in the sport weight range, with about 875 yards (800 m) per cake. It is a self-striping yarn, so one cake produces long color changes without joins. The fine gauge suits lightweight garments, baby items and summer tops. At $14.99 at Paradise Fibers as of November 4, 2026, it is the best new price among the four stores that list it.

Questions and answers

Is Rainbow Cake yarn worth it?
At $14.99 for 200 g and about 875 yards, the cost per yard is low for organic cotton. It suits lightweight, self-striping projects. Buy it if you want organic cotton in a fine gauge; skip it if you need a stretchy, machine-dry yarn.
How does it compare with other Queensland yarns?
Rainbow Cake is a sport weight organic cotton cake with self-striping color. Queensland's other lines differ in fiber and weight, so check the gauge before substituting. Match 23 to 26 stitches per 4 inches for a similar fabric.
What size needles and hook does it need?
Use US 3 to 5 (3.25 to 3.75 mm) knitting needles, or a 3.5 to 4.5 mm (E to G) crochet hook. The knitting gauge is 23 to 26 stitches per 4 inches; the crochet gauge is 16 stitches per 4 inches.
How should I wash it?
The product specs say hand wash cold and dry flat, while the listing text says machine wash warm. Treat it as hand wash cold and dry flat to be safe. Cotton can shrink and stretch, so avoid a tumble dryer.
How much yarn is in one cake?
Each cake is 200 g (7.05 oz) and about 875 yards (800 m). That is enough for a light top or a small shawl in most sizes. Buy two cakes for larger garments.
When is it cheapest?
The best new price is $14.99 at Paradise Fibers as of November 4, 2026, across four stores. Cotton yarn rarely gets deep discounts, so compare the per-yard price rather than waiting for a sale.
Where is the Queensland Rainbow Cake Sport Yarn cheapest?
