    The softest purest wool I've ever worked with!

    This really is a super, super soft wool. It is lofty as well, although really knits as aran weight and 4.5mm needles work best 9 or a 6mm crochet hook). I have bought perhaps 20 skeins of Malabrigo Worsted so far and have had a bit of a problem with one, which was badly wound, had a dirty stretch, a felted stretch and a knot. Lisa of Wool Stack replaced it for me immediately and, really, I haven't had another problem with any other skein. The colours of this yarn are just lovely, but watch out with the Natural which, just like the other colourways, can differ in shade from one batch to another. Just make sure you order enough to complete your project at the same time so you get them from the same batch. Will knit and crochet with this wool again and again :o)

Description

This is it, the original Worsted that made Malabrigo an international favourite! A buttery-soft single ply of fine Uruguayan Merino wool, this yarn has excellent stitch definition, comes in an enormous rainbow of colours (solids, semisolids, and variegateds) and is deliciously squishy and cozy. It’s also fantastic for felting projects! Like all Malabrigo yarns, it is kettle-dyed in small batches by artisan dyers and is full of subtle variation and beauty.

Great for: Accessories and hand-wash-friendly garments, next-to-skin wear, cables, textured stitches, colourwork, felting, anything where warmth and comfort are a factor!

Note: Malabrigo comes in small dye lots so please be sure to buy enough yarn for your project. As with any hand dyed yarn, there can be significant shade differences between skeins, even within a dye lot, so we recommend that you alternate skeins every few rows to prevent striping.
