A superwash version of the classic Worsted Merino base. While remaining true to the original softness of worsted, we ‘washed it’ so you can too, allowing more freedom and ease of care. Having the same weight as Worsted, it can be used interchangeably for any projects you may have planned for Worsted. Like all our yarns, it is kettle-dyed in small batches by our artisan dyers and is full of subtle variation and beauty. While Malabrigo uses the same dye formula for each batch, the hand-dyeing process means that colors may vary from one lot to another. These variations can be subtle or very noticeable, especially in variegated colorways.
