I’m Brandi from the Etsy Shop! Just popping in to say thank you for featuring my shop! I had no idea and watching your excitement was the highlight of my day! Just a note on selecting a light or dark center cake- there is a note section at checkout where you can leave requests! Happy crocheting!
Hint: To manage the “plies” (strings to form the yarn), I thread the yarn through a bead. Work your project through the loose end and bead slides along the yarn, keeping the plies together. 😊
Off topic, but went to Michael's earlier today, not my regular one, to get yarn and knitting needles, scissors,etc for a hospitalized friend. While there looked for Red Heart Unforgettable to work up guage for my next project. They don't have it and can't find it on line, but found a very comparable substitute ,Yarn/Laine Facets/Facettes , and got that. Sales person turned out to be the manager and she was Soooo helpful. Overall good selection ,lot's of yarn cakes for my friend , and wonderful experience. Got everything I needed in one stop and in person with enough time to go out with husband for a great BBQ rib dinner at a new restaurant. 😊😁
Your hubby is so wonderful. He is so supportive in all of your yarn projects. When you asked what you should make with the big cake, without hesitation, I thought a two person wrap for you and Hubby.☺️
Crystal thank you for introducing different yarns . I love how you get excited over yarn . When I go to a yarn store I feel like I’m at a candy store . How exciting !!!
Hi Crystal , I’m from Switzerland 🇨🇭 if you directly order from there side, you can choose how the color will be wrapped! Also, I think, it’s a little bit cheaper. Have a nice day Désirée
Wow! I LOVE the Fairytale cake. The iridescent glitter strand reminds me of an Opal. I jumped to the Etsy store to check them out. I would probably have to double strand a project, it's a very fine yarn, but I wouldn't have the heart to put it with anything else but another skein of itself. (8 strands) It almost seems a shame to make a blanket out of it, because you are right, Crystal...that yarn screams shawl! Thank you for sharing!
The pride, brown sugar, and Victorian Christmas yarns are all just gorgeous! How can you choose what to choose first?! Love them all so much! I have soooo many of your videos saved that I want to do!! Thanks So much for your content and sharing your enthusiasm. I am going to have to surf the net and get some of these from overseas as I haven't seen them in New Zealand!
That's so beautiful and I think the ounce difference is the charm at the end. The super big yarn would be beautiful as a landscape blanket. Pull from the brown to start because as it pulls out of the skein, it will naturally landscape to the top of whites orange and yellows! Gorgeous 😍
Victorian reminds me of autumn. Brown sugar is my favorite. I don't usually buy red but bloody mary is gorgeous! Holy moly that's huge! Love that all yarn has charms 💜 Great yarn unboxing!
This yarn is so far out of my budget, lol. It sure is fun to look at though 😍 I went to her Etsy shop to see the blanket made with the giant cake 😯, which is gorgeous, and was looking at all the other ones she has 🥰 so beautiful. Looking at those yarns out of my budget doesn't bother me one bit. They're absolutely stunning to look at!
Hi Crystal. I'm right there with you that I can't pick a favorite. They are all gorgeous yarn. I love the charms that they put on them. Thank you for sharing. Much love for you and your family
Love those cakes. Remind me of Little Favorites by Rea. Just beautiful! I just made 2 of your shawls from her cakes. Have NEVER seen a cake that big in my life!
Wow that's a big cake of yarn and it's gorgeous! I love all the sparkle yarns especially the Fairy Tale. The flower cake is also very pretty. Thank you for showing us a new yarn 💝💖🤗 Love you. Blessings to you and the family!🙏🏻💖🤗
Crystal, you are such a joy to watch. I love visiting with you. The charms were as beautiful and exciting as the yarns. I can not pick a favorite, as each one you picked up became my favorite until the next one. You truly thrill my soul with your yarn choices. I am eager to see your finished garments from these yarn cakes.
Wow...such beautiful cakes you got! Holy crow! That's one monster HUGE cake you got there! Beautiful!! Wow is right! They are all so beautiful, especially when you add the sparkle to them.
I must say Colors of the Wind blew my mind!! Wow!! Gorgeous!! I love it!! I wish they still had Bloody Mary. I definitely have a shawl pattern perfect for it!!
Crystal, I really appreciate the details of the yarn you showed us. I have learned so much from you in the almost 8 years I have been enjoying your videos. Thank you.
Oh my, oh my!!!! I don't see how you find it possible to give any of the yarns you buy away. I am in love with all of those sparkle yarns and couldn't choose a favorite. It is easy to understand your excitement because of your passion for yarn. So much to love in this yarn haul!
That giant cake and the sparkly vintage Christmas cake both took my breath away. I guess I know what to save up for next. Thanks for showing them off. Maybe one of those big cakes would be great for a milestone giveaway. More subscribers for Crystal! 😊
When you opened the box and the smile on your face began...priceless! I love all of these,,but that Victorian Christmas,,,,oh my!!! And the big cake...wow!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Holy heck, that giant cake at the end is the coolest thing I've ever seen XD I think my favorite of the normal sized cakes would have to be the 'flower' one. But given that we just rolled into November, that Christmas yarn is calling, too!
That red and black cake would make a gorgeous long cape . You picked some really gorgeous yarn 😍. If you figure what a total yardage you need to make a project they would probably come out to be close in price for any yarn you buy.
Brandi is awesome. Part of the thrill of using this yarn is getting TK's (tiny knots) it is so exciting to see the colors shift one tiny thread at a time. I know you don't ususally use yarn this fine, but if you do end up using it, hopefully it will bring you joy as you are working your project. These cakes make stunning works of art.
Love them all!! That huge one reminds me of a gorgeous geode! All the yarns are beautiful, Crystal. Thank you for showing us another gorgeous haul!❤️🌹🌈
My favorite is the Bloody Mary ! If I had that monster cake I'd make a continuous granny square, starting with the center color for the center of the continuous granny square throw, bordering it with the outside color of the cake.
Oh my goodness so beautiful! I love them all. The colors of the wind is wonderful but I also love the Christmas colors and the fairy ones. They are all beautiful!!
I looked at the Melody page on etsy about 2 years ago . Will have to check it out again . I wanted one of everyone then . I could not make up my mind . Thank you so much for sharing this yarn haul , Crystal . Love and Hugs .
Hi Crystal!! WHOA!! I love the all that yarn you got!! It's all very beautiful, especially that big cake!! Wow!! I would make an awesome big blanket. The charms are all very pretty too. How lucky are you to buy all that beautiful yarn. Thanks for another awesome video & GOD bless you.

I do that too
Exactly what I do & I always pass that hint along, great with any multiple strands or “splitting” yarn it makes a huge difference .
Omg! I think that is brilliant thanks for the tip!
I want to buy it how possible
Great idea. Thanks

Cake that has zero calories. My favorite. Love sharing in your excitement. Thank you
That “jellyfish” charm is a Hamsa 🪬 hand which symbolizes protection, happiness, good health, and luck. All the yarn is gorgeous!!!!
I have to say, I'm pretty partial to that victorian looking one. Its stunning 😍
Boy oh boy, I'm gonna get in trouble if I keep watching these yarn reviews. I just ordered 3 big cakes and will be ordering more. Love these!
That Victorian Christmas is EVERYTHING! And the Bloody Mary is definitely a favorite. The giant one with the tree of life, WOW!!
The sparkle yarn is absolutely gorgeous! It reminds me of the veils the women in the Ten Commandments movie wore.
Your hubby is so wonderful. He is so supportive in all of your yarn projects. When you asked what you should make with the big cake, without hesitation, I thought a two person wrap for you and Hubby.☺️
I love the Victorian Christmas - it looks very autumnal ❤️🧶❤️ That big cake of yarn is mahooosive!!!! 😳😃🧶❤️
Amazingly gorgeous. when you mentioned tinkerbell & fairy dust - you were spot on. Then the name was fairy tale.
How appropriate
Holy Moley!!!! Thats the biggest yarn cake I've ever seen!!!! I think Victorian Christmas is my favorite 😍
Crystal thank you for introducing different yarns . I love how you get excited over yarn . When I go to a yarn store I feel like I’m at a candy store . How exciting !!!
Wish i could afford that yarn😭!!! Its beautiful!!!
Hi Crystal , I’m from Switzerland 🇨🇭 if you directly order from there side, you can choose how the color will be wrapped! Also, I think, it’s a little bit cheaper. Have a nice day Désirée
I love how excited you get, almost every time you open a box! Reminds me of kids on Christmas! So awesome!

What gorgeous yarn! I think I would just put that big boy on the shelf as decoration! I think that first fairy one was my favorite. Love that sparkle!
I love how excited you get when you open the box. You get so excited your speechless. But that yarn is beautiful, I would have been speechless also.
That's so beautiful and I think the ounce difference is the charm at the end. The super big yarn would be beautiful as a landscape blanket. Pull from the brown to start because as it pulls out of the skein, it will naturally landscape to the top of whites orange and yellows! Gorgeous 😍
I weighed it without the charm 😊
That big cake would make a beautiful blanket with a contrast of sparkling cream color
I love love the fairy/Tinkerbell one the most! Second would be the Christmas/ victorian one! Definitely beautiful ❤️
Victorian reminds me of autumn. Brown sugar is my favorite. I don't usually buy red but bloody mary is gorgeous! Holy moly that's huge! Love that all yarn has charms 💜
Great yarn unboxing!
Those cakes look as buttery and masterfully crafted as phyllo pastry filled Baklava. YUM !!!

Brandi is awesome. Part of the thrill of using this yarn is getting TK's (tiny knots) it is so exciting to see the colors shift one tiny thread at a time.
