About the Yarn:

A truly unique yarn! They start with a bulky thick-and-thin single made of delightfully soft superwash merino wool, and then criss-cross it with a binder thread (either black or white.) Then the yarn is dyed one of Malabrigo's signature kettle-dyed colorways, and: poof! Something unlike any yarn they've made before, inspired by a particular style of hand-spun yarn. Caracol knits up into a cozy, fluffy fabric with a ton of texture and visual interest. Simple stitch patterns really let it sing!

Here's why we LOVE this yarn:
1. The colors!—it's so fun to pick them, yet it's hard to pick just one. Whenever we buy this, we find ourselves stocking up.
2. The strand is thick, so projects go quick. Whip up a hat in an hour or two. It's perfect for chunky accessories.
3. That texture! It makes even the simplest garter stitch projects pop!

Note: Malabrigo Caracol is hand-dyed by artisans in groups of 5 skeins. Any order greater than 5 skeins will contain different dye lots, and skeins may vary even within the same dye lot. Be sure to buy enough yarn for your project at the same time. To blend color variations, alternate between two skeins as you knit or crochet.
