Malabrigo Chunky Yarn (096 - Sunset)

Sunset is colour 096 of Malabrigo Chunky.

Malabrigo Chunky takes the soft merino of Malabrigo Worsted, makes it thicker and plies it, giving a smooth, squishy bulky yarn with good stitch definition for cables and bold textures.

• Fiber: 100% merino wool
• Weight: Bulky (5)
• Skein: 104 yds (95 m) / 100 g
• Needles: US 10–11 (6–8 mm)
• Gauge: 14 sts = 4" (10 cm) in stockinette
• Crochet hook: K–M/N (6.5–9 mm)
• Care: Hand wash cold; lay flat to dry

Good for: quick hats and scarves, outerwear, cabled accessories and housewares.

Every skein is hand-dyed, so colour shifts a little from skein to skein and lot to lot. Buy enough for the whole project, and on larger pieces alternate two skeins every few rows.
