This is it, the original Worsted that made Malabrigo an international favorite! A buttery-soft single ply of fine Uruguayan Merino wool, this yarn has excellent stitch definition, comes in solids, semisolids, and variegated colors, and is deliciously squishy and cozy. It’s also fantastic for felting projects! Merino Worsted, like all Malabrigo yarn, is kettle-dyed in small batches with by our artisan dyers and is full of subtle variation and beauty.  Use it for accessories and hand-wash-friendly garments, next-to-skin wear, cables, textured stitches, colorwork, felting, and anything that requires warmth and comfort!

Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each skein may vary from the next. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball.  To choose a gradient set, please see our other listings.
