    A superwash version of the classic Worsted Merino base. Equally soft and beautiful as the original, this superwash version adds ease of care to all your favorite worsted projects.

    This yarn is kettle-dyed in small batches by artisan dyers and is full of subtle variation and beauty. Intense color and gentle sheen makes this yarn beautiful and different. There are no dye lots and no two skeins are exactly alike. It is recommended that you alternate skeins within a project when using Malabrigo hand dyed yarn to avoid distinct lines when changing skeins.

    Great for: Accessories and garments, next-to-skin wear, cables, textured stitches, colorwork, anything where warmth and comfort are a factor!

    Great for fingerless gloves!

    I got two different skeins of this yarn to make two pairs of gloves for some friends, and it worked great! The colors were all gorgeous, and they knit up beautifully.

    Beautiful colors, easy to work with

    I bought two skeins of this yarn - Frank Ochre and Pearl Ten. The complementary colors pair beautifully together. Both colors are stunning on their own and have a dual-color aspect to them in real life. The Pearl Ten is a deep purply plum, and in the sun, the indigo blues come through. The yarn itself is really easy to work with and very soft. I'm using the yarn for a shawl, and it's going to be very warm and cozy during the chilly winter months. It would be great for clothes, blankets, very suitable for contact with skin. I didn't notice any smell to it, as mentioned in another review.

    great for hats!

    I bought this to crochet a hat and used about 75% of it. the yarn is so soft and plush and very cozy to wear! i would definitely buy more. the only thing was that it had a weird "dye" smell to it. maybe that goes away after you wash it? i liked this better than the washted yarn i got.

    I LOVE this yarn!

    This is really wonderful yarn!!! Soft, easy to knit, beautiful colors at a really reasonable price! This is my first time using this yarn, but it will certainly not be the last! I have already bought more for my next knitting project. I have a feeling that I will be using this yarn a LOT!

    A joy to knit!

    I love this yarn. So soft and it makes anything I make look beautiful.

    Also, Apricot, I love how easy it is to use your online store. Now I know where I can get my Malabrigo fix - even during lockdowns!
