Malabrigo 100% Merino - Sock
Looking for a yarn that's easy to care for? Malabrigo 100% Merino - Sock is machine washable, luxuriously soft, and perfect for any lightweight project. Enjoy effortless knitting or crocheting with this hand-dyed gem.
While called "Sock," this yarn is 100% Merino wool without nylon, meaning it lacks the reinforcement needed for long-lasting socks. It’s best suited for shawls, scarves, garments, and lightweight accessories. If using for socks, reinforcing the heels and toes with a stronger yarn or adding a nylon thread is recommended.
Malabrigo Sock is machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water, but for best results, it’s recommended to hand wash and lay flat to dry. This helps maintain the yarn’s soft texture, stitch definition, and vibrant colors while preventing excessive wear or stretching.
Yes, as a hand-dyed yarn, there can be significant variations between dye lots. To achieve a consistent color blend, it’s advised to purchase enough yarn for an entire project at once and alternate skeins every few rows to avoid noticeable color shifts.
