The packaging is deceiving as these balls are EVEN BIGGER than the original Caron Colorama Halo yarn. The yarn cakes have jumped from from 227 grams / 8 oz to over doubling its size to 500 grams / 17.6 oz.

The yarn cakes also have its own colouring as well.

When reviewing the patterns, you will see two different size options, even though the names are the same. Just review the weight of the yarn ball when it suggests the yarn quantity.

The Red Heart Soft materials list is an example of showing you the weight of the yarn ball so you can select the right one.
