Yarnspirations introduces another extension of yarn from the amazing famous Caron Cakes. This is Caron Skinny Cakes, which is a lightweight #3 yarn. This yarn is the first Caron Cakes extension to offer more colours than the standard 5 colours we have enjoyed.

This yarn is exclusive to Michaels in North America and is considered a seasonal yarn.

      I was pretty excited to see them here, I picked up a ball, no idea what I want to do with it yet but it was so pretty. I saw there are some new colours out here now that we didn't have when I first bought mine.

    "Ideas of featuring #3" overlaps the "sort by" button. Also, the comments are not full across page but just a few letters along right side of page. I hope this helps.

    The lettering is so large in the patterns it bleeds over making it hard to read.

        On a computer (not on a phone), when you mouse over the links to projects, a second graphic pops up and automatically scrolls so you see the bottom of a list of tags. You can't see the link to the actual project and can only click on the tags.

        Morning Patti, I am unable to duplicate that event to see that happen on my computer. Which browser are you using. We use Chrome here. Are you using PC or MAC?

        What lettering? I am unable to duplicate this error. I am using Google Chrome here as well.

        I am using firefox on a desktop computer, and I am getting the same issue. when you try to select one of the pattern pictures, a tag list scrolls to the bottom of the list and it sits right over top of the picture. This makes it difficult to actually follow the picture to the pattern link, because all that you can select are the tags from the bottom of the list.

        OOOH I know what you are speaking of. That's a programming thing with the template. If I eliminate the categories out, it reduces the searching. Let me see if I can axe out those searching criteria so the pictures are clearer. This will eliminate out search options for the crocheters but you are probably right. On the Mobile, it's a real pain in the butt.

        I was able to adjust the coding to axe out the categories from the photos. This should take effect on your end in the next 2 hours as the global servers are being updated now.
