Malabrigo Rasta (super bulky)

Rasta in Spanish means “dreadlock”, and is also how Malabrigo refers to a very thick cord like this yarn. A lightly-fulled single-ply yarn of magnum proportions! Whip out a super-cozy accessory in just hours with this super-sized delight of a yarn. Unbelievably squishy, this is the yarn to turn to when you want the ultimate in warmth (or the ultimate in speed!)

Great for: Quick knits, textured stitches, hats, cowls, scarves, outerwear.

Please be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since skeins may vary from bag to bag.  (This is a great yarn to have in your stash since it is so versatile!)  To ensure random color distribution when using boldly variegated colorways, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball.

We use product photos that are provided by Malabrigo.  Please note that colors may vary due to computer monitors as well as dyelots.  Malabrigo has been moving away from dyelots and are now labeling their skeins as "No Dye Lot".

If you need your yarn wound into center-pull balls, please add our yarn winding service.
