Its time! Its finally time! I have a pattern ready for your consumption! My first written out and published pattern ready to move your hands in loopy motions! But first, just a touch of back story!
Have you guys heard of Caron Cakes? They came out of nowhere as a Michael's store exclusive and everyone lost their damn minds. I wanted to be cool about it and not fall in love, but honestly, a big cake shaped mass of yarn with color changes...no one is that strong! Its soft too, so that helps! Right after the holidays Michael's had it on sale for $5 per cake and I knew it was a good time to stock up, I went in looking for the cream of the crop colorway: Rainbow Sprinkles! Turns out I was the only one at my local Michael's with that goal in mind because whoa, it was pretty much all they had left! I checked my impulses at 4...I have regrets.
The pattern that follows uses just shy of 1 of these bad boys, but save what's left because I made a companion pattern (going up in February) that will gladly take up the scraps left from this one! And now, ladies and gentlemen...
