Malabrigo Chunky is one of the thickest that we stock. This bouncy round yarn is made of  3 plump plies of merino wool using a medium worsted spin. So it’s as suitable for a beginner project like a hat or scarf, as it is for an experienced knitter working cabled and textured stitches. The gauge makes it ideal for must-finish-soon gifts as well as need-to-see-progress first scarf projects. This yarn would also make a gorgeous squishy hug of a sweater for colder days.

Malabrigo’s signature style of kettle dyeing their yarn by hand, creates inky shades with mixed and semi-solid colours. This knits into fabric with a painterly quality that is even more exciting on textured stitches.

Malabrigo is a Uruguayan family business built around hand dyed Uruguayan merino yarn. Today their spinning and dyeing operations still work largely with Uruguayan wool but it is now dyed and spun in Peru.
