Caron’s cotton line includes solid colors, variegated options, and blends that mix cotton with acrylic for different project needs. Whether you need something purely natural or a blend that’s easier to care for, there’s a version that fits what you’re making.
About brand
Caron has been making yarn that crafters actually want to use for decades. Their cotton yarn line takes what people love about natural fibers—the softness, the breathability, the way it feels in your hands—and makes it practical for everyday projects.
The cotton blends they offer mix natural fiber with acrylic, which means you get that comfortable cotton feel without worrying as much about shrinking or stretching. Your blankets, dishcloths, and garments come out of the wash looking pretty much like they did going in.
What keeps people coming back to Caron Cotton is how it performs while you’re working with it. The yarn doesn’t split as easily as some cottons do, the colors stay vibrant, and it’s forgiving enough for beginners while still being something experienced crafters reach for. Whether you’re knitting a summer top, crocheting kitchen towels, or making a baby blanket, the yarn does its job without fighting you.
Caron understands that crafters need yarn they can count on—something that works up nicely, wears well, and doesn’t cost a fortune. That’s what their cotton line delivers.

Just finished a baby blanket and the colors turned out exactly like they looked online – no weird surprises. If you want good quality yarn that’s actually comfortable, this is it.”
