You can find Caron Big Cakes, Tea Cakes, and Cupcakes in stores now for even more colors and project possibilities!

Whether you want to make a small hat with the Cupcakes yarn or a scarf using one skein of the Caron Cakes, you'll find a selection of some of our favorite patterns here.

Caron Cupcakes Crochet Hat

Your kids will love these darling hats! Use Caron Cupcakes to make them. The Caron Cupcakes yarn comes with pom poms and it's a slightly smaller skein then regular Caron Cakes (244 yards versus 383 yards and 100% acrylic instead of 20% wool). A smaller skein is perfect for a smaller project like this one, and Smitha even wrote in her blog post that she had about half the skein left over!
