Malabrigo Arroyo (sport/dk)

Malabrigo Arroyo is a soft, hand-dyed sport-weight yarn made from 100% superwash merino wool. Its smooth four-ply construction creates clear, even stitches while providing enough strength for garments and accessories intended for regular wear.

Arroyo can be worked at either a sport or light DK gauge, making it a versatile choice for sweaters, shawls, baby clothes and textured accessories. Malabrigo’s tonal and variegated colorways add depth without obscuring cables, lace or other stitch patterns.

Malabrigo Arroyo works well for lightweight sweaters, cardigans, shawls, scarves, hats and mittens. Its combination of softness, stitch definition and easy care also makes it a practical choice for baby and children’s garments.

A note about hand-dyed yarn: Malabrigo yarn is dyed in small batches, so colors may vary between skeins and dye lots. Purchase enough yarn for your entire project at one time. When using multiple skeins, alternate between them every few rows to distribute the color variations more evenly.
