Rios by Malabrigo is a buttery-soft, 100% merino superwash spun in the heart of Peru — beloved by knitters worldwide for its exceptional softness, vibrant colourways, and everyday practicality. A worsted weight (10-ply), Rios is wonderfully versatile — ideal for adult and children's garments, accessories, and homewares. It knits up beautifully with excellent stitch definition and a luxurious drape. Each hank is kettle-dyed in small batches by skilled artisan dyers, resulting in the rich, tonal depth that Malabrigo is famous for. Subtle colour variation is part of its handcrafted character. As dye lots vary between bags — and even between hanks within the same bag — we recommend purchasing enough yarn to complete your project in one go. For the most even colour distribution, work from two hanks simultaneously, alternating every few rows.
