Malabrigo Worsted - Ravelry Red (611)

Ravelry Red is colour 611 of Malabrigo Worsted.

Malabrigo Worsted is the yarn that made Malabrigo's name: a soft, lofty single-ply merino, kettle-dyed in Uruguay in deep, layered colour. It isn't superwash, so it blocks beautifully and can be felted.

• Fiber: 100% merino wool
• Weight: Worsted / Aran (4)
• Skein: 210 yds (192 m) / 100 g
• Needles: US 7–9 (4.5–5.5 mm)
• Gauge: 18 sts = 4" (10 cm) in stockinette
• Crochet hook: G–I (4.5–5.5 mm)
• Care: Hand wash cold; lay flat to dry

Good for: hats, cowls, mitts, sweaters, blankets and felted projects.

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.
