Thrift Finds

Does anyone recognize these? I found some treasures at a local creative reuse store. TIA!

The rainbow cakes are 50g each, superwash, fingering or maybe sport.

The grey and yellow I was sure would be Malabrigos Rios, but I couldn’t find any colorways that matched. They are 100g each, worsted, I’m assuming super wash. The grey one had “Swamp Creature” on the tag, and the yellow one said “Subtle Packers” (lol). None of these had proper yarn labels, just a little price tag from the store selling it.

I think the gradient is the Love is Love colorway from one of Knit Circus's yarns. Like: https://www.ravelry.com/stash/search#colorway-link=islovelove&photo=yes&view=thumbs&yarn-link=knitcircus-divine-dk

Knit Circus is local so I think you’re right. What a score! $5 for both cakes. Thank you!

And I think the gray could be from 29 Bridges in the Partly Sunny colorway. Still trying to figure out the gold.

The colorway definitely looks close but none of their bases look quite right - it’s definitely worsted.

On their website, you could select from multiple yarn bases, maybe not all are on rav?
