Malabrigo Rios Worsted Weight Yarn - Zarzamora Color 100% Superwash Merino Wool

About This Product

Knitters and crocheters, Malabrigo Rios is absolutely dreamy to work with! This Zarzamora colorway has these beautiful, rich berry tones with subtle variations that create stunning depth in finished projects. The worsted weight is so versatile - perfect for everything from cozy sweaters and hats to blankets and accessories. What makes Rios special is the 4-ply construction that resists pilling better than single-ply yarns, plus it's machine washable which is fantastic for frequently worn items. The 100% superwash merino wool is incredibly soft against the skin - no itchiness at all, making it perfect for baby clothes, scarves, and garments worn directly against skin. Each 100-gram skein gives you 210 yards (192 meters) to work with, and the gauge of 18-22 stitches per 4 inches works well with US 6-8 needles. The texture has just enough definition to show off stitch patterns beautifully without being splitty. Malabrigo is known for their amazing hand-dyed colors, and Zarzamora is no exception - the color variations within each skein create beautiful, organic-looking results in finished pieces. The yarn has nice spring and bounce that makes knitting enjoyable, and it blocks out beautifully to even out the stitches. Whether you're making gifts, building your wardrobe, or creating special heirloom pieces, this yarn delivers both luxury and practicality. The quality is consistently excellent across skeins, though with hand-dyed yarns it's always smart to buy enough for your project at once. Definitely a favorite among fiber artists for good reason - it's pure joy to work with from start to finish.
