New Yarn

This is my latest haul of yarn and my first time buying the cake yarns. The only reason I bought the Mandala yarn is because a kimono/cardigan pattern that I'm crocheting was to be used. I have to say I love the yarn especially because it's a 3/light yarn. I have bought the Mandala, Caron cakes 4 which has to be made into something lacy because it's a thicker yarn, Yarn Bee has some cakes at Hobby Lobby and I did buy some of that too but that yarn has some alpaca and I'm not suppose to put it in the dryer so I'm not crazy about that, although it is very soft and is also a 3. I'm not so much into yarn that has  very different sudden color changes in it, I prefer the ombre type colors with suttle changes.
Some of the cakes that I've bought. Love the Mandala color Troll in lower left.

Carron Cakes is a 4. Yarn Bee and Mandala are 3s.

 My first ever crocheted sweater. It's a size 6-9 months so it really looks alot bigger than it really is. I'm so happy with how it turned out and I think I can now make an adult swear for myself.
