Look! It’s teeny-tiny Mecha! This kettle-dyed single-ply takes color like nobody’s business. The result is richly colored skeins that are perfect for shawls, scarves, and other accessories. Hand or machine wash, gentle cycle, and lay flat to dry.

While Malabrigo yarns are not hand-dyed but kettle-dyed, and are occasionally assigned dyelots, the skeins are nonetheless created individually, in small batches. We will be sure to check Malabrigo dyelots, if applicable, while filling your order. If your skeins have not been assigned a dyelot, we will do our best to match them visually. In either case, we will contact you about any issues. Because Malabrigo yarns may differ considerably from one skein to the next, please consider alternating skeins every two rows or rounds if you want an appearance of overall consistency in your finished object.
