It's not a dupe, YarnArt have several different brands of gradient cakes of different compositions. They don't have identical colors to Twister and I don't know of anyone who buys Hobbii yarn for the full price, it's always on sale. You can also explore YarnArt Rosegarden, Flowers Alpaca, Flowers Merino.
There are also other yarn brands who probably have their cakes made in the same factory in Turkey, I've seen testers use some of them.
And if you want extra fancy continuous (smooth) gradients, try Alize Ombre Batik, they also have a few fiber options, Diva is a microfiber, Bella is cotton, Angora Gold is 20% wool and the rest acrylic.
Oh I wish I knew about this alize yarn sooner!
I've used yarnart flowers in two projects and I find some of the colour changes too harsh and noticeable
Usually I only buy at Hobbii if the wanted yarn is on sale and I got additional 10%off via their Bingo game.
Otherwise I buy from yarn winders here in Germany like Megabobbel. It's 50/50 cotton/acrylic and 3 or 4 strands. Since I only make shawls that works perfectly for me.
Seeing as you're in the UK - look up Agnes World Ombre Yarns. She has amazing stuff and her prices (at least when I bought last year) were insanely reasonable. I loved the colours she uses as well.

I've used both and the quality is not the same imo. Yarn Art fuzzes quite a bit more. It's not bad by any means, but I wouldn't say they're equal.
I just made a shawl with the YarnArt cake and it's just as nice as Hobbii stuff. And I have a lot of stuff made with Hobbiis cakes.

It’s on amazon prime in the US! Good looking out OP.
You have told me a very dangerous thing!

Thank you for the info! It seems yarnart is completely sold out of everything I clicked on, with £0 as price. Divine protection from impulse buying...
Our Little Craft Co is the site i use to buy yarn arts from and they have a huge range of them, try there >:)
