Dear users, dear authors,
Do you like Bobbel and gradient yarn and urgently need new ideas for working them up? Then this is exactly the right thread for you. Get yourself a new project now. 

@Authors,
2-3 patterns per author are enough. Don’t forget links, images, info, etc. All patterns advertised here must not have been advertised in the forum in the past 3 weeks and must have at least 10 sales / a CR of at least 2%.

Bobbel cakes are often used for crafts because of their beautiful color gradients. Personally, I’m not that fond of plied yarn cakes, but luckily there are also many twisted yarns with a wonderful color gradient.
Leftover yarn from them can then be used for all kinds of small projects.

Here are a few examples:

Rainbow Fairy Hand Puppet
For the Rainbow Fairy’s robe and hat, I used sparkly gradient yarn in soft pastel rainbow colors. Of course, you can also use individual leftover yarn in the corresponding colors, but this way the transitions are softer and more harmonious.


Seahorse Hippy
Seahorse Hippy was also crocheted with a gradient yarn like this, though the color changes are longer here. It was a very thin yarn for shawls or socks. I held it double for the seahorse so the body would be more stable.


.Crocheted Shells
Yes, and gradient yarn was also used for parts of these shells, here with a very short color gradient. This makes the shells look more realistic.
