Malabrigo Rios is a soft, plied worsted-weight merino yarn known for its vibrant hand-dyed colorways and exceptional stitch definition. Spun from 100% superwash merino wool, it offers the luxurious softness Malabrigo is famous for, combined with the durability and structure needed for everyday wear.
The multi-ply construction gives Rios excellent resistance to pilling and helps prevent splitting while knitting or crocheting. Its smooth texture makes it ideal for everything from clean stockinette to bold cables and textured stitches.
Rios is especially well-suited for:
Sweaters and cardigans
Hats and accessories
Baby and children’s garments
Colorwork and striped projects
Gift knits that need easy care
Each skein is hand-dyed, meaning subtle variations make every project unique. We recommend alternating skeins in larger projects for the most even color distribution.
A customer favorite for a reason — soft, washable, richly colored, and endlessly versatile.
