The yarn that made Malabrigo famous! A buttery-soft single ply merino wool (slightly felted). This yarn has excellent stitch definition and comes in solids, semi-solids (tonals) and variegated. It is also great for felting projects. It is kettle-dyed in small batches by artisan dyers. Colors can vary widely from batch to batch, so it is always recommended to buy an extra skein. These are my photos(not stock photos) and represent the true color as closely as possible. As with any hand dyed yarn it is recommended that you alternate skeins while completing your project.
