Malabrigo Sock Yarn

Malabrigo Sock Yarn

Malabrigo Yarns

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.

If you like Malabrigo and you like silk,then you'll love the mix of the two in this yarn. The colors are what you would expect from Malabrigo and a kettle dyed yarn. The silk gives the yarn a beautiful sheen. It's thick and sturdy enough to be a gorgeous hat, but thin enough to make a soft scarf.
