Malabrigo Rasta – Super Bulky 100% Merino Wool Yarn When you want a project that’s as satisfying to knit as it is beautiful to wear, reach for Rasta. This sumptuously squishy super bulky yarn from Malabrigo is hand-dyed in their signature rich, heathered colorways — the kind that make it nearly impossible to pick just one. The slightly-felted single-ply construction means it won’t split on your needles, and it knits up fast enough to finish a hat in an evening or a cowl over a weekend. Rasta is butter-soft straight from the skein and only gets better with wear. It shines with textured stitches, simple stockinette, and anything where the yarn itself is the star.
