Malabrigo Rios
I used this for a cabled throw. It is a lovely soft yarn that knits up evenly. The cables showed up very well after blocking. The colours are gorgeous. I would certainly buy again.

Soft, strong, and washable, this worsted weight yarn is Malabrigo's workhorse! The plies help resist pilling and washability makes it fantastic for frequently-worn garments, housewares, and children and baby clothes. And like all of Malabrigo's yarns, it’s super soft and great for next-to-the-skin wear! Spun from premium superwash merino, it comes in an array of watercolour-multi, semi-solid, and variegated colorways.
Great for: Accessories, garments, baby and kids items, housewares, toys, cables, textured stitches, colorwork.
