Malabrigo | Caracol Yarn - 100% Superwash Merino Wool

Truly a unique yarn! Starting with a bulky thick-and-thin single made of our delightfully soft superwash merino wool, it is then criss-crossed with a binder thread (either black or white.) Then the yarn is dyed in one of Malabrigo’s signature kettle-dyed colorways, and: poof! Something unlike any yarn Malabrigo has made before, inspired by a particular style of handspun yarn. 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
