    Lovely yarn

    Great yarn to knit with. Ordered one skein of Piedras that was very much autumnal colours favouring the orangy/brown. One skein wasn't enough so I ordered a second Piedras skein - this was very green. While it was obvious that the same colours had been used in the dying they did look completely different. Thankfully in the garment I was knitting it actually looked like a progression from the orangy/brown through to the green. Worth remembering when you buy that every skein is different even when it has the same name.

Description

Mechita is the fingering-weight verion of Malabrigo's beautifully dyed single plyed superwash Mecha yarn. Just as soft and rich as the original, but great for lighter projects!

Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag of 5 skeins is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. To ensure random colour distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball.


Great for: Shawls, scarves, garments, accessories, baby and children's items, cables, textured stitches.
