I love the Colorama halo so I'm happy about the cakes! Though knitting takes me longer, I knit three scarves using that, since I LOVE the gentle "seamless" ombre it makes. I haven't crocheted with it yet but I imagine it is similar.
@@ShannonTalksYarn I should clarify, each scarf took a full cake, but it made a long scarf! Yes I'll be waiting for the sales on this, hopefully this fall!
I’m so glad that they are back but it’s disappointing that some beautiful colors are gone!! I bet your shrugs are soooooo cozy! That’s such a good yarn choice for that project!
@@egoreknitsoh no!!! I think Kristen had the same experience!!! I think the biggest problem is if, for example, you want to work the ombré from light to dark but then dark to light. (Work the ombré backwards) I hope I’m saying that right!
I’m geeked to see Joann’s carrying Caron cakes because they have the better coupons (wanted to go use the 50% off in the app for today only but didn’t make it out) and I was getting bored with Mandala. Lol. But ever since Michael’s got rid of their 40% coupons I can’t afford the cakes most of the time. I’m not the biggest fan of halo yarn but I definitely want to try these. I debated over the OGo but hate the format. So pretty stripes and cake format, I’m down to give it a go. I would love to see more of the cakes make it to Joann’s.
It would be so awesome if Joann started selling more Caron cakes! I totally agree 💯 I don’t have a Michael’s near me, so I’m not good at comparing the two stores but I do appreciate the Joann coupons! Let me know what you think I’d you do try it out!!!
Yes it was cheaper! $2 cheaper to start with but it seems like they started marking down the O’gos fairly soon after they premiered them! I agree, these seem EXPENSIVE 😬
I was so excited to find this out! Are you more likely to purchase now that it’s a cake? That price tho! 😬
How much r they?
$11.99 😬
I’ll be waiting for a sale!!! 😃
@@ShannonTalksYarn oh wow I don’t blame you I need to keep an eye out as well for the sale. I love that yarn!
It’s a good thing Joann’s has a lot of yarn sales!
@@ShannonTalksYarn yes i bought online from them before a few times
I love that they listened and made a change. It will be fun to see if the halos sell better in cakes. 💜😁
I curious about that too!!! They do cost more…….🤔
I’ll buy them no matter what tho lol. I’ll just wait for a sale 😉
I love this yarn . So happy it isn't going away . I love ombre/gradient shades .
Me tooooo!! ❤️🧶❤️
I’ve not used these before but now that they’re in the cake form I’ll have to give them a go! Such pretty colors.
You will totally have to try it out Meagan! If you do, let me know what you think 😃
I'm so excited to hear that they are selling them in cakes now! 🎉
I knew you would be!!!!
Never used the halos but they are pretty in cake form too! Love the beeswax frost and the rosemary! Thank you for sharing!
You’re welcome Cyd! It’s a nice yarn to use….especially is you are looking for an extremely subtle ombré! I hope u have a great weekend!
I have never tried the Halo yarn but looks like they have some pretty colors!😊
It's a nice yarn to use if you like acrylic yarn. The ombre the AMAZING. It's the most gradual embre I've ever seen!
I love the halo, but I'm going to have to wait for a sale. I still have some of the original, so I can wait.
Me too Denise!!!! Me too 😃

That’s awesome! Getting 3 scarves definitely make the price tag a little easier to handle! 😂
I love how seamless it is too ❤️

@@jolenelarson469 gotcha!!!! I guess that was wishful thinking on my part lol!!! 😂
I love the halo and have made many shrugs with it. I don’t see the really bright yellow from last year though.
I’m so glad that they are back but it’s disappointing that some beautiful colors are gone!! I bet your shrugs are soooooo cozy! That’s such a good yarn choice for that project!
I love the Colorama Halo yarn! I bought a bunch on clearance. I do like the cakes better. Easier to start from either end.
I know!!! I feel like you’re asking for trouble if you start from the “wrong” end of the OGo 😂
I’m glad u stocked up when you could!!!
@@ShannonTalksYarn I tried and it was a fail. Live and learn.

Let me know what you think I’d you do try it out!!!
Love that they put this in a cake, but wasn't it cheaper as O'Go? The price is hanging me up a bit. Why is yarn so expensive?
Yes it was cheaper! $2 cheaper to start with but it seems like they started marking down the O’gos fairly soon after they premiered them! I agree, these seem EXPENSIVE 😬
@@ShannonTalksYarn Thank you for confirming. I'm bummed about the price but I do LOVE that they are in cake form 💖
Ive never had caron yarn
You have to like the fuzzy type of yarn to like this. But if you do, definitely try it out! It’s really nice to work with!
@@ShannonTalksYarn I will try to get some .we live pretty far .I ordered online
There’s just so much more available online!!! I don’t know what I’d do without online shopping lol 😂
