Malabrigo Sock Yarn




100% Superwash Merino Wool
100g= 440 yds
Gauge: Approx. 8 sts/inch
Recommended Needle Size: 1-3 US
My Color: 850 Archangel
Needle size used in this sample: US 0
Pattern: Practice sock from Cat Bordhi's, "New Directions for Sock Knitters"
The colors are gorgeous! The yarn is very skinny, and could probably be used for lace knitting. The skeins are generous, with 440 yards, so you only need one for a pair of socks, and only one for a small shawl.
