This is it—the original Worsted that made Malabrigo an international favorite! Crafted from buttery-soft, single-ply fine Uruguayan Merino wool, this yarn boasts excellent stitch definition and comes in a vast rainbow of colors, including solids, semi-solids, and variegated. It’s deliciously squishy and cozy, making it perfect for felting projects. Like all our yarns, it is kettle-dyed in small batches by our artisan dyers.
Great for: Accessories, hand-wash-friendly garments, next-to-skin wear, cables, textured stitches, colorwork, felting, and any project where warmth and comfort are key!
Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project, as each bag is from a different dye lot, and skeins can vary even within the same bag. For a balanced color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each.
We use the same dye formula each time, but each batch may vary. Differences between dye lots can be subtle or quite noticeable, especially with variegated yarns. After quality control, skeins are labeled and packed in bags of five or ten. In yarn stores, skeins often get mixed on the shelves, so the dye lot code is crucial for matching skeins.
Please note that the colors shown in photos are for reference only and may vary slightly due to the hand-dyed process.
