Scheepjes Whirl Turns 10!

Scheepjes Whirl Turns 10: Introducing Whirl Birthday Cakes

To mark a decade of Scheepjes Whirl, De Bondt is proud to introduce Whirl Birthday Cakes — a trio of limited-edition colourways created to celebrate ten years of magnificent gradient colour and one of the most beloved yarns in the Scheepjes range.

Celebrations Call for Cake!

Whirl Birthday Cakes were shaped by the same passion that has defined Whirl from the very beginning: a deep love of colour, thoughtful design and the crafting community that made it iconic. Each of the three cake-inspired colourways Cutie Pie (797), Berry on Top (798) and Piece of Cake (799) — blends creamy shades and delicious tones into carefully considered gradients, honouring everything makers love about Whirl. From the optimal twist that makes it a pleasure to work with, to the familiar "fuzz buzz" that signals an upcoming colour change, and the beautiful drape it brings to knitted and crocheted designs.

Wrapped in playful novelty yarn bands inspired by celebratory cake wrappers, these are designed to feel special — gift-worthy, eye-catching and clearly created for this milestone moment.

Together in Harmony

Bringing all three Birthday Cakes together reveals an extra treat. Designed in harmony, they share matching inner and outer shades, coming together to form one continuous, mesmerising gradient. Use them individually for striking standalone projects, combine any two, or use the full trio for an indulgent statement piece with a joyful sweep of colour. Matching solid Whirlettes in Chocolate (863) and Ice (860) are also available.

Exclusive Designs & Scheepjes Community

New designs from Johanna of Mijo Crochet, Jessica Wifall and Rachele of Cypress Textiles will be introduced over three weeks, with each new release free for one week only, showcasing the three colourways in their own distinctive style. Follow Scheepjes on social media for the reveals and join the conversation in the Official Dutch or International Scheepjes Facebook Groups — and guide your customers to your store to make the most of this limited-edition release.
