Description

Malabrigo Rios is a worsted weight yarn, soft, strong and washable in a premium super wash merino with incredibly even stitch definition… anything you knit in this yarn will look amazing!  Rios is an absolute pleasure to knit, soft and squishy, and it slides off your needles without splitting… It’s gorgeous!

It is plied from 4 stands which helps resist pilling and with washability, making it fantastic for frequently-worn garments, housewares, and children and baby clothes.  It comes in an array of watercolor-multi, semi-solid, and variegated colorways.

I have just knit the Killer Queen Cowl using 2 shades of Rios.. and it was a fabulous knit. Read all about it and pick up a kit here
