Soft, Strong & Full of ColorMeet Arroyo — Malabrigo's hand-dyed sport/DK weight yarn that brings together the luxurious softness of 100% superwash merino wool with the durability you need for everyday wear. Think of it as Rios' lighter, more delicate sibling: the same warmth and depth of color, with a breezier drape that's perfect for layering.Each skein is hand-dyed in small batches, so no two are exactly alike. For beautifully blended color transitions, alternate skeins every few rows.Why You'll Love It Incredibly soft — 100% superwash merino that feels gentle against skin, even for baby knits Rich, nuanced color — hand-dyed with gentle tonal shifts and depth that machine-dyed yarn can't match Versatile weight — sport/DK works beautifully for shawls, scarves, accessories, and lightweight garments Easy care — machine washable, so your finished pieces stay beautiful longer Yarn Specs Weight: Sport / DK Construction: 4-ply Yardage: 335 yards (306m) per 100g skein Fiber: 100% Superwash Merino Wool Gauge: 20–22 sts = 4" Needle Size: US 4–6 (3.5–4mm) Hook Size: US E–7 (3.5–4.5mm) Care: Machine wash cold, gentle cycle; dry flat
