Awesome combination of colors
I've tried other colors of Caron cupcakes yarn and there are really nice, but after using this Mango tango, I may say this is simply the most beautiful mix/combination of colors, simply loved it, the beanie came out great. I wish the combination be made in Caron Cakes #4 worsted yarn

Enough for two small adult-size hats
I wasn't crazy about the texture/feel of the yarn while I was working with it. It was a little rough. But after I washed it, it was soft and fluffy!I didn't buy this yarn at full price, when it first came out, because the label gave me the impression that there was only enough yarn for one child-size hat. (There is only one pompom.) Eventually a local store marked it down so much that I decided to try it anyway. I ended up making TWO hats for myself (21" head measurement) with one ball.So, maybe Caron shot themselves in the foot by giving the impression that it was good for only one small child hat. The price was too high to justify the purchase. But for two adult hats (three kiddie hats if they're small), it's a good deal.I did not encounter any knots or tangles in the yarn, either. And I loved the striping. (The stripes are also good for two hats. That is, you get all of the colors in each hat.) However, if you are making a smaller hat for a child, you might not get all the colors in there unless you make the hat longer.
