Malabrigo - Rasta - Yarn Loop

A lightly-fulled single-ply yarn of super bulky proportions! Whip out a super-cozy accessory in just hours with this super-sized delight of a yarn. Malabrigo's premium Uruguayan merino is just as soft as ever, and Rasta comes in a range of our unique “watercolor multi” colorways as well as a rainbow of semi-solid basics. Unbelievably squishy, this is the yarn to turn to when you want the ultimate in warmth (or the ultimate in speed!)

Use for quick knits, textured stitches, hats, cowls, scarves, outerwear.

Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball. This yarn is slightly felted before it is balled which has wonderful benefits for the consumer! This yarn is less likely to pill, break or shed so that you get years of use out of every project.
