~Malabrigo Rios 10 Ply 100% Superwash Merino Wool
$29.50 NZD
Malabrigo Rios is a soft, strong workhorse yarn! The plies help resist pilling, and washability makes it a fabulous choice for frequently worn garments, homewares, and child or baby clothes. It's a soft, smoothly-plied yarn which comes in a wonderful range of hand-dyed, semi-solid, variegated and watercolour multi colourways. It loves textured stitches, cables and colourwork. Rios is kettle-dyed in small batches by artisan dyers and is full of subtle variation. Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and hanks may even vary within the same bag due to the dying process. To ensure random colour distribution, work from two hanks of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each.
