Malabrigo Caracol is truly a unique yarn! Malabrigo uses a bulky thick-and-thin single ply made of soft superwash merino wool, and then criss-crosses it with a binder thread in either black or white. Then the yarn is dyed one of Malabrigo's signature kettle-dyed colorways to create something unlike any yarn Malabrigo has made before. Caracol knits up into a cozy, fluffy fabric with a ton of texture and visual interest. Simple stitch patterns really let it sing!
Great for:
Warm winter accessories, big cozy afghans, and stockinette that's far from boring
Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. The skeins may vary one from the other even within the same bag.
